Part of Toontown Being Demolished To Make Way For Runaway Railway
Now that Disneyland is reopened, renovations are in full swing. One place where this is most evident is over in Toontown where Disneyland is making way for the West Coast version of Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway.
As we previously reported here at MickeyBlog, a small section of Toontown is being demolished to make way for the new attraction which is the first ride devoted to Mickey himself.
Gag Factory Toontown Five and Dime is the location that its being demolished to make way for the Mickey ride which is still slated to open in 2023.
Twitter user @OOCParks and Instagram user @franzidealwithit shared an Instagram story of this building being demolished even as guests visit the park. You can check it out below.

Its so interesting to see such massive work being carried out with guests so nearby but Disney does have to make up for lost time due to the over a year COVID-19 shutdown which only saw the park open this Spring.
The attraction, once completed, will be similar to the attraction that is already running at Disneyland California Adventure. Here’s a quick video from Disney that takes you through the attraction.
As you can from this dynamic video, passengers on Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway will get to enjoy Mickey and friends as you venture into the cartoon world. This includes fun destinations from the Wild West to a bustling city!
We’ll be following the work at Disneyland closely. Readers are encouraged to keep checking in with us for further news and updates!
