Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway opens March 4th!

Just came through with fp, 5 minutes to the preshow. The ride was down for about an hour

I’d have been shocked if it could have made opening day with no closure. An hour is great

Had 12pm FP+ today. Was in and out of the building in about 15 min. At that time the ride was running VERY smoothly and they were really loading the people in.

I thought the ride was Amazing!!! Visually it was awesome and first time I have ever been on trackless. The technology blew me away. IMO visually better than Navi.

It was a bit more jolting than I was expecting but to me not any worse than Toy Story.

The attraction is down again.

Just the little bit I saw from various media outlets looks amazing.

Tota!!y agree. We LOVED La Nouba and saw it every trip - this might surpass it - looks visually stunning!

The CM said “extended downtime”. Curious if they’ll open standby again tonight-I’m hoping yes since I didn’t make it in line yet!

What would make this ride go down? Would it be the actual trackless cars or something more with all the other visual aspects of it?

 

[LSUmiss]

it is easily 4 hours now, I just saw the crowds.

That blows my mind that it got up to 5 hours. That means that ppl saw it at 4 hours & decided that wasn’t too bad & got in line!

I am going to compare to FEA which went down a lot when the animation sync went down (ie, the faces weren’t syncing to the words or didn’t show up)

On the opening day of a ride no one has done before? Not one bit surprising to me

Ride may have been only minutes long, but that song is engrained in my head.

For folks wondering, no bathroom passes at this time. But I simply acknowledged the CM, told them my intentions and said I'll be back in a few minutes. Told CM my name and pointed towards my ride partner. Easy as could be, but this was in front of the marquee sign/entrance.

No idea, but there stre several elements that could malfunction

We're still seeing FoP climbing to 2 hours and some days even longer, so opening day 4 hours is not really unrealistic

The song is stupidly catchy

ahh that makes sense. I could new see the parts of the ride that could malfunction. thanks

It’s not that it’s not realistic. I’m not surprised as much as I can’t fathom ppl getting in a line like that. It seems so absurd to me to wait that long for pretty much anything.

There was a report earlier in this thread from someone who got in line while it was posted at 300 minutes and they waited something like 100 minutes.

Longest actual standby wait captured by a Lines app user today was 115 minutes.

It’s a people eater, and I’d bet they only handed out something like half the Fastpasses for it that they will once they’re more confident in its hourly capacity, which helps clear the standby line.

Here it is:

We rope dropped this morning. Line when we got into it at 7:15 was by coffee shop, in front of the fountain. We were off of the ride at about 8:40. Seemed like it moved very quickly. We were moving pretty much the whole time we were in line.

When we could see it, it said 300 mins

Do not underestimate the importance people place on being one of the first people able to run to their favorite social media outlet(s) to proclaim they were one of the first people to do something. Riding on the official first day is worth the time for a good number of people who even a week later would not because then it would be "old news".

I rode MMRR with FP this morning and it was amazing! I’ve ridden trackless rides before, at HK and Tokyo Disney, and thought this was a great showcase of the technology. And the visuals were so vivid and immersive!

Could be anything. A guest could cause a ride to go down, projector issues, AA issues, vehicle issues.

People wait for plenty of crazy things.
