    Default 7 Dwarfs Mine Train in Testing

    Last night people in MK reported that the 7 Dwarfs Mine Train was operating. Great News! There were "people" riding in the cars! Those "people" however, were Test Dummies. Looks like the Mine Train is "on track" for an early 2014 opening.

    A few weeks back I heard lots of rumors about possible soft opening starting thanksgiving week. I didn't get my hopes up because the ride still looks like there is a lot of work to be done. We will definitely keep an eye out while there and make sure to check the ride often. It would be amazing to be able to test ride since we have no plans for Disney next year.

    So hoping that the Mine Train opens early. We have a bunch of newbies coming with us in January, it would be so awesome if they could experience this.

    I would be so happy if it were to open early, like January 11 through the 19!

    I think it'd be too much wishful thinking that they would do a soft open at New Years.... we are actually going to Disneyland this summer, so we will probably not be able to ride the mine coaster until NEXT Christmas...
    Although my boys might be able to talk us into a long weekend in the fall.... hmmmm
    Next trip - New Years 2018!

    That's quick. Three weeks ago we peeked through a peep hole oh the wall. It didn't look near completion to me. The tracks were in though.
    I'm glad they use dummies before they use people!

    We'll be there the same week, too. I'll be the free spirit doing things in my own free spirit ways. Hope to bump into you.

    Did the test dummies need a FP+ reservation to get on?
