A Fantasyland Favorite Got a Colorful Makeover in Disney World!

Attractions are constantly getting refreshed and refurbished in Disney World. Sometimes this involves complete makeovers, while other updates are a bit more cosmetic.

Over at Storybook Circus in Magic Kingdom, one such attraction fits firmly in with the latter category, as a beloved train debuted a bright new look!

Trains at Magic Kingdom are kind of hit or miss. While Walt Disney World Railroad has seemingly been closed forever (with no reopening date in sight), a smaller “railroad” is alive and kicking in Fantasyland!

Main Street Train Station

We’re talking about the Casey Jr. Splash ’n’ Soak Station, the Dumbo-inspired rail car at Storybook Circus. While this isn’t a train you can ride, it’s a favorite stop for kids hoping to pose with circus animals or cool off in the water play area.

While strolling through Magic Kingdom this weekend, we couldn’t help but notice a glossy new sheen on Casey Jr.! Bravo to this fresh paint job!

While the main car is done, work is already starting on the rest of the cars — the ones carrying the circus animals!

It’s always nice to get a little makeover now and again, as Casey Jr. can attest. We’ll keep you posted on more updates and upgrades in Disney World!
