Information
 

The Walt Disney World Railroad opened October 1st, 1971

 

Fantasyland Station opened March 12th, 2012 and replaced the Toontown Fair station

 

Ride time - 20:00

 

Fantasyland Station stands where the old Mickey's Birthdayland, Starland, Toontown Fair station once stood.

 

Originally the Magic Kingdom only had Main Street Station and Frontierland Station. A third station was built June 18th, 1988 for Mickey's Birthdayland which was then upgraded to the Toon Town Station

 

Original plans of the Magic Kingdom showed a Tomorrowland Railroad Station. It's location was going to be where Space Mountain's entrance currently stands

 

There are 4 trains;

No. 1 Walter E. Disney - Built 1925

No. 2 Lilly Belle - Built 1928

No. 3 Roger E. Broggie - Built 1925

No. 4 Roy O. Disney - Built 1916

 

1.5 mile circles the Magic Kingdom

 

It transports 1.5 million passengers each year

 

The Walter E. Disney and Roger E. Broggie locomotives have serial numbers that are sequential (58444 and 58445). These locomotives were on the shop floor at the same time in 1925 as they were being built for the United Railways of Yucatan and still operate together to this day. Because of this, they are referred to as the "twins"

 

At one time, Disney's Fort Wilderness also had steam trains

 

Trains are stored underneath the monorails in same building.
