More of the construction scrim has been removed from the Main Street U.S.A. train station at the Magic Kingdom as work wraps up on the refurbishment.

The refurbishment has been underway for several months as Disney continues to refresh the appearance of the park ahead of the October 1 50th celebrations.

Although the scrim removal is well underway on the entrance, the side facing the park is still behind scrims.

The train itself remains out of service as work continues at a slow pace on the TRON Lightcyle Run coaster site preventing the relaying of the train tracks in that area.

My sources tell me that they're instead working on a floral advertising a Disney+ and Genie+ bundle. They're calling it DisneyGenie++. You heard it here first.

Will the train station and its lawn get the usual Halloween decor, or will there be something different for the 50th?

While they’re waiting, all the curtains in the upper level of Canada need replaced lol

An Another year

I understand, but it's the kind of thing that would have gotten someone a big 'ol talking to, at minimum, if it happened 15 or more years ago. Show standards have gone down hill in recent years, and based on my experience working there for many years, it wouldn't fly until recently. Same with the interspersed burnt out "popcorn" lights on every Main Street building and the Grand Floridian.

When do you think Tron will be done? Personally I don't think Tron is going to be a ride for me I just really care about when the train will be running again. Do you have any insight as to when the train will be running again. Keeping my fingers crossed for good news. ;)🤞🎇✨

Likely since the scaffolding was just removed the interior may still have some active construction and the Magic Kingdom decorating team has not yet been allowed access to reinstall curtains.

100% bad show.

So you are thinking Tron will be done Oct 1 ? Sorry, that is not happening

BrianAug 22, 2021

Yes.

I was there the other day and it looks Like the upper windows were missing something. You could see right into the rafters. We’re there curtains before?
