BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted September 30, 2012 Report Share Posted September 30, 2012 From the Disney Parks blog... Guests Can Soon Interact with Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in New Immersive Queueposted on September 24th, 2012 by Jennifer Fickley-Baker, Social Media ManagerToday we have an exciting update on something new that’s in the works in Frontierland at Magic Kingdom Park – Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is about to get a new interactive queue.We’ve previously shared updates here on the Disney Parks Blog about enhanced queues that have been added to other attractions at the park – these interactive queues immediately allow guests to immerse themselves in the story of an attraction while they wait to board. Such experiences can already be found at The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, the Haunted Mansion, and most recently, Dumbo the Flying Elephant in Storybook Circus.Our friends at Walt Disney Imagineering just shared with us that Big Thunder Mountain Railroad in Frontierland is next in line for such an addition. When it opens, guests will be able to participate in the story of the Big Thunder Mining Company like never before. It’s guaranteed to be a blast!See more about the enhanced queues at Walt Disney World Resort in these posts:Behind the Scenes: The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh at Magic Kingdom ParkBehind The Scenes: New Ways to Experience the Haunted Mansion at Walt Disney WorldSneak Peek: Kids Will Star in the Show at the Big Top Tent at Dumbo The Flying Elephanthttp://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2012/09/guests-can-soon-interact-with-big-thunder-mountain-railroad-in-new-immersive-queue/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted October 2, 2012 Report Share Posted October 2, 2012 Any word on when the shutdown will happen to accomplish this? Really hope not during our February trip but i suspect that will be the case. The younglings are really looking forward to BTMRR so this closure would suck indeed......I am all for making the experience better though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DaveInTN 3,247 Posted January 13, 2013 Report Share Posted January 13, 2013 I wonder why they didn't complete this during the recent refurb? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
