TRON Coaster at Magic Kingdom is Continuing to Take Shape
One of our favorite things to do these days while we’re at Magic Kingdom is to pop round to take a peek at how construction is coming along on the TRON Coaster.
Though Disney has yet to announce an opening date for this state-of-the-attraction, it is a bustle of activity over at the rides Tomorrowland location.
When the day does finally come, guests are sure to be blown away by this ride that takes you into the world of the TRON films.
Drawing it’s inspiration from TRON Lightcycle/Power Run at Shanghai Disney this coaster once completed will immerse guests in a cyberspace-style landscape.
The ride will include an indoor section as well as an outdoor canopy which will be illuminated for a special treat.
The white domed structure that you see being built in the image above will make up the canopy.
If you’ll be at Magic Kingdom in the weeks ahead, a great place to get a view of the construction site is at The Barnstormer in Storybook Circus.
You’ll also get some awesome views from the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover so have those cameras at the ready!
This will mark the second coaster in Tomorrowland and will be near to the iconic Space Mountain.
Construction has taken over the area previously reserved for the Walt Disney World Railroad which is currently suspended.
Once construction is completed, Disney will need to adjust the track of the railroad around the new coaster.
There still seems to be a fair bit of work still to be completed on the attraction.
However, we’re optimistic that Disney World may use the 50th Anniversary as an opportunity to announce an opening date for this space-age attraction.
This is just one of several big projects that will be opening. This includes the re-imagining of Splash Mountain, the reimagining of Jungle Cruise, Ratatouille in EPCOT (Opening October 1st), The Guardians of the Galaxy Coaster at EPCOT (Opening TBA) and more!
