Disneyland Railroad

Oh shame on me! We started the D's on June 26 (the 2nd day of our weekend getaway) and I'm just now writing about it. My apologies!

The Disneyland Railroad has 4 stops. At each stop, passengers can get on or off the train.

Trivia: It was originally known as the Santa Fe and Disneyland Railroad.



I like this picture because, unintentionally,
Walt's image was caught in the reflection.



First leg: Main Street to New Orleans Square - on the way the scenery includes Native Americans and wildlife in the brush.



Second leg: New Orleans Square to Toontown - The New Orleans terminal is interesting but the journey to Toontown is uneventful.



A bit of trivia - The mayor of the real New Orleans was at the dedication for Disney's New Orleans square. He commented that it looked like the real thing, but he was dismayed when Mr. Disney pointed out that the new one was much cleaner.

Third leg: Toontown to Tomorrowland -Nothing exciting. Okay, honestly, I don't remember. 

Fourth leg: Tomorrowland to Main Street - There is a lot built into this stretch exclusively for the train passengers. You'll pass through the Grand Canyon and view abundant wildlife. You'll also travel back in time for a look at the dinosaurs in their natural habitat.
