EMH and Lilly Belle

[notyou]

Hi all - somewhat urgent request. My wife just told me about the Lilly Belle, which sounds awesome. But I plan to drag my boys (4 and 8) to the park tomorrow at 7AM to get our money's worth out of staying at Paradise Pier.

So the question is, can I go to the Railroad Station and ask for reservations that early? Will somebody be there at 7? Or do I need to come back at 7:30 or ask somebody else to make the reservations (my wife and parents may be arriving later)?

Thanks for any help. Hopefully you can reply before 6:30AM tomorrow!

Unfortunately the Disneyland Railroad is not usually open during EMH. You can ask about the LB as soon as the trains start running and someone's in the Main Street Station, generally at or shortly after general opening (I'd go between 7:45 and 8:30), but I will warn you that they often don't take passengers on the LB when it's hot because there's no air conditioning and it gets REALLY hot in there. With the heat we've been having, I wouldn't set your heart on getting a ride, same with the tender seat. Never hurts to ask. Good luck!

The time we rode her we just saw her on the back and asked right at the station and got on.

Again it never hurts to asks. But the last time we were at the park the Lilly Belle wasn't in operation until well after park opening and they were not taking reservations until it started running.

He knew what you were talking about, he was just playing dumb.

I've seen it on a few different occasions at Disneyland and on Disney Cruise Line.
