Do you hear that? It’s the sound of PROGRESS! For a while, it seemed like there was no end in sight for Disney’s loooooong TRON: Lightcycle Run construction project, but lately, we’ve been seeing a lot of big additions to the newest attraction headed for the Magic Kingdom.
Hello from the Magic Kingdom!
Unfortunately, the classic (and convenient!) Walt Disney World Railroad is sort of being held hostage by TRON right now; the train has been unable to run due to the TRON construction blocking the tracks. Could this be changing soon? Maybe! Come with us to see why we’re smiling in Disney World on this sunny afternoon!
First of all, in case you haven’t seen it in a while, here’s the current state of the TRON: Lightcycle Run attraction in Tomorrowland! There’s a big, long ramp leading up to the attraction, plus a HUGE canopy that’s looking pretty cool! Disney doesn’t have an official opening date yet, but every day is a step in the right direction.
Looking good!
During our recent visit to Storybook Circus, we saw a NEW tunnel installed below the TRON canopy! We’re guessing that the Walt Disney World Railroad will run right under that bridge eventually. For those that have been following the status of TRON and the train, this is pretty exciting news!
This is an exciting step in the right direction!
Not only that, but we also caught the train MOVING recently. It was going backward, but maybe soon we’ll see it going the right way — fingers crossed!
MORE ride testing! But this time…the RAILROAD ? pic.twitter.com/9XRZIJqBYJ
