Lighting, Ventilation Added to Walt Disney World Railroad Tunnel Under TRON Lightcycle Run at Magic Kingdom

As you can see in our photos below, Disney has recently added lightning and what appears to be some ventilation to the tunnel that will allow the train to run beneath the TRON Lightcycle Run attraction and related walkways. Here’s a look!

In this first wide photo, we can see the tunnel in the middle right of the photo and work taking place to connect the tunnel to the nearby existing railroad track.

A closer look at the tunnel itself reveals the work taking place inside the tunnel.

Windows are also part of the design.

At the rate this project is going, they must be planning on re-opening the railroad for the 60th celebration.
 


Are people receiving email alerts from disboards these days? I haven't received any for about 2 days.
Interesting...I stopped getting email alerts a couple years ago and no matter what I did I couldn't get them. Then, when the DIS changed servers a month or so ago they magically reappeared. I was so happy to get alerts again. But, now that you mention it, I haven't gotten any the past two days. ☹️

One thing I've never understood is why Disney doesn't include a map showing all of the food booths in the passport. Thankfully DFB usually puts one on their website that I print out and carry with me. I know they have large maps in the World Showcase that show the booths, but it's nice to just have one in your pocket.
