The Walt Disney World Railroad closed on December 18, 2018 to make way for the groundbreaking of the Tron Lightcycle / Run roller coaster that’s set to open in March of 2023.

Should Disney Have Brought Back Festival Of Fantasy?
After being closed for nearly 24 months, Walt Disney World finally saw the return of the beloved parade, Festival of Fantasy on March 9, 2022!
