Magic Kingdom Attraction Guide – Walt Disney World Railroad

WDW Railroad - Main Street
The WDW Railroad is next in our Attraction Guide!

The Walt Disney World Railroad is next in our Magic Kingdom Attraction Guide.  This railroad system encircles the Magic Kingdom, with stations at Main Street, U.S.A., Frontierland, and Fantasyland.  Here are the attraction details for you to have when you plan your trip:

Attraction Name: Walt Disney World Railroad
Attraction Type: Slow Ride
Height Requirements: None
Location: Main Street, U.S.A., with stations at Frontierland and Fantasyland as well.
Hours of Operation: Park opening until just prior to the Wishes Fireworks show.
FastPass+: Not Available

I don’t know about you, but it seems like the Walt Disney World Railroad is something that boys like more than girls.  I don’t doubt that I’m wrong, and that I’m stereotyping here, but in my family, riding the Walt Disney World Railroad all the way around (and sometimes further) is something that I really like to do, while my girls would rather just ride it one stop and get off — although they do humor me.  I don’t need to ride it every day we are at the Magic Kingdom, but it is definitely on my list for at least once per visit.

The Walt Disney World Railroad has several steam locomotives; they include the Walter E. Disney, named after Walt himself, the Lilly Belle, named after his wife, Lillian, the Roy O. Disney, named after Walt’s brother, Roy, and the Roger E. Broggie (pictured below), named after one of the key Imagineers who helped with the Walt Disney World Railroad.

The Roger Broggie locomotive is named after the Imagineer that helped Walt with the railroad!

Do you and your family take time to ride the Railroad, and if so, how far do you go?  All the way around or just to a stop or two?  Let me know in the comments, and thanks!

About Mike Ellis

Mike has been a Disney fan since his first trip to the Magic Kingdom in 1979 when he was 11 years old. Since that first trip, he has seen parks open, lands close, and attractions come and go, but one thing remains the same, his love for Disney is as strong as ever.

His Disney adventures caused him to start My Dreams of Disney because he wanted to document for his family and friends all of the special Disney Memories he has enjoyed with his family, and since that first post in 2010, Mike's hobby has become his passion!

Now a Travel Consultant with Pixie Vacations for over nine years, Mike has helped many of his readers plan and have incredible Disney vacations of their own. Check us out on Facebook and Twitter.
