Seven Dwarfs Mine Train is OPEN for the 24-Hour "Disney Day".

 Just breaking into the new this morning, Disney World has announced that the newest addition to Magic Kingdom WILL be open for today's 24-hour Disney Day.

 While Seven Dwarfs Mine Train isn't set to open to the public until next week, this hasn't stopped testing of the ride. While guests have slowly been allowed to ride during the 'cast member testing' which has been going on this week, this was kept rather quiet until word began spreading though the blogging community.

 It appears the ride opened as a surprised for the 24-hour theme park marathon currently underway. At least according to Orlando Sentinel!

Disney World Announces Opening Date for 'Seven Dwarfs Mine Train'.

 Early Friday Morning Disney World dedicated their newest, if lack-luster, attraction in Magic Kingdom. Along with this ceremony, they've also given the opening date.

 May 28th, 2014 the "Seven Dwarfs Mine Train" will open to the public, finally completing the extensive renovations on Magic Kingdom's FantasyLand area. Under construction for nearly 3 years, the ride is the last and final part of the expansion to open.

 Check out our early review of the attraction and POV footage- POV Footage of 'Seven Dwarfs Mine Train' at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom.

POV of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom!

It's been no secret that the long awaited Seven Dwarfs Mine Train attraction, part of the Magic Kingdom Fantasy Land expansion, has been testing as of late. They were even shooting a commercial just the other week. However, aside from some video of the trains running where we could see them, we never got a chance to see what the ride was really all about.

Well, the wait is over!

The folks over at Attractions Magazine have gotten their hands on full, uncut, on ride POV video that shows the entire ride with all of it's show elements. The video below has both the front view and back view included in it and it's definitely worth checking out. So, let's take a look at what Disney has taken three years to put together for us, shall we?


There's definitely some interesting elements going on and the ride itself seems more a dark ride/roller coaster hyrbid. Which, is an interesting mix of things to say the least, and the swinging action from the cars is definitely a cool feature too. The theming around the track area and queue looks great too, but something seems off.

Inside Seven Dwarfs Mine Train

 Inside the New "Seven Dwarfs Mine Train" Attraction.

 The Disney Parks Blog has favored fans with a treat over the weekend. A quick and teasing look inside the new attraction coming to Disney World's Magic Kingdom in 2014, The Seven Dwarfs Mine Train.

 Showing off some of the mysterious interior of the attraction as well as the theme work going on, the park is building up the hype for this newest addition to Fantasyland.

 This new ride, themed off "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" replaced the old attraction of "Snow White's Scary Adventures". A family roller coaster, it's the newest mountain range to be added to Disney World.

 We've included another image from the post below! Overall, it's looking pretty awesome but still leaves a LOT of questions about the ride.

Disney's Magic Kingdom- Seven Dwarfs Mine Train Testing

New Video- Seven Dwarf's Mine Train Testing        

 After months of quiet construction, it seems Disney World's Magic Kingdom Park is finally moving forward on testing their newest addition to the "Fantasyland Expansion". Set to open in 2014, The Seven Dwarf's Mine Train has been spotted doing ride through tests after months of the track being completed. 

 Slowly but surely, the outside areas of the ride's themeing is coming together. Still no word about what progress is being made to the rides inside themeing though we can guess it's probably coming along nicely at this point. 

 On neat thing about this video, you can spot the 'swaying' of the ride cars.

Snow Whites Scary Adventures- Last Day

Well Friends,
It's coming quickly. The very last day for a Disney original dark ride, Snow White's Scary Adventures shall close forever on May 31st, 2012. It's being replaced by what? Yeah, it's nothing good.
Not a new ride. Not even anything most of us honestly care about.

Princess Fairytale Hall is will take the place of Snow White. A Meet and Greet area for the Disney Princesses and "and visiting royalty". While I like the idea of putting all the princesses in one area I don't agree with taking out a classic attraction to facilitate it, even if said princess the ride is themed on is getting a new attraction.

Snow White's Scary Adventures Will become park of Magic Kingdom Park History on May 31st.
