Big Thunder Refurb - Will It Be Done On Time?
Words is, Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will be closed for an extensive refurbishment, January 9 through March 31, 2012.
So here’s my question, based on what we’ve seen of refurbs like this in the past – and what some of you might have heard about this particular upcoming refurb, do we predict Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will reopen
- April 1
- a few or several days before April 1 (a early finish and reopen)
- Sometime after April 1 (refurb not completed and extended)
I don’t mean to wring my hands but our next trip starts days before the planned reopening and ends on April 2.
Many times I have explained to friends and coworkers that WDW is a 365 days a year operation and periodic refurbs are necessary and to be expected.
But Big Thunder Mountain Railroad really is my grandson’s top favorite.
The last time he and my son and I were at WDW we ended our trip by busting the gate at the MK on our departure morning and riding BTMRR 4 times in a row as fast as we could get off run around back to the entrance and ride again.
Yes, grandparents are happy fools.
