INTRODUCTION

Casey Jr., the circus train from the Disney animated feature Dumbo, takes guests on a tour around Storybook Land.

 

ATTRACTION

Casey Jr. Train Casey Jr. Circus Train is located in the back of Fantasyland next to Dumbo. An unshaded queue switchbacks up to the boarding area, where guests can select which of the cars on the miniature circus train they wish to sit in. In addition to two open-air cars there are two “wild animal” cages with bars on them.

The train takes a short, approximately three-minute ride around the perimeter of Storybook Land. Storybook Land contains miniature scenes from many favorite Disney animated movies, such as the castle from Cinderella, the Seven Dwarfs cottage, and the palace of Agrabah. Notice the miniature plants, also — some very fine examples of the Japanese art of Bonsai.
