This picture was taken in August of 2009. Believe it or not, but that shot was taken from one of the cars of the Walt Disney Railroad! What really makes this picture for me, and why I love the Big Thunder Mountain so much, is the incredible detailing that the Imagineers spend so much time developing to enhance the attraction for us. I’ve ridden BTMR dozens of times, and you know, there never ceases to be something new that I see when I take a ride. For example, do you see the possum hanging from the tree in this shot? I don’t think I’ve ever seen that possum in all the times I’ve ridden BTMR, so now I’ve got something new to see!
Take a look at all of the details in the picture. Is there anything that you see here that you hadn’t realized was in the attraction?
I always wondered what movie/disney story is BTMR made from?
Hello CC! I'm not sure if BTMR is based off of a Disney movie, so let me do some research! If I find out, I'll let you know. Thanks for commenting on this and the other posts you commented on as well! I love hearing comments from my readers!
Hello CC again! I didn't find a movie that it is based off of, but I did find a great wikipedia article that talks in great detail about the backstory. If you want, check it out on my Facebook Fan Page! Thanks again!
awesome! Thanks! Your welcome we have just moved to Florida and are excited about being able to get Annual Passes and go to disney more often! Your blog has lots of good information!
