SPOILER...Anyone going to the opening of Mickey's Runaway Railway Tomorrow (01/27/23)?

For anyone who rode Runaway Railway today- How was it? Also, would it be ok for someone with a bad back?

I haven’t read it at dlr yet, I have at WDW. The ride vehicle does spin and make some jerky motions. It’s the same ride system as rise just not a multi level ride system.

Edit: some of the motion is similar to Luigi’s.

It was so cute and fun. There are some jerky moments. I really like it and think it’s a perfect fit for Toontown.

Does it do a full 360 spin like Luigis?

I would recommend to watch some on ride videos on YouTube, there's a little bit of spin in the conga room with Daisy- not repeated circles like Luigi's though.

It's more of the transitions between scenes that have a bit of jerky movement to make you feel like you're on a 'runaway railway' Maybe similar to Roger Rabbit or Toy Story Mania between screens (without spinning.)

It's really pretty smooth. It kind of "swings around" some, but it's not that rough. The ride car does shake a little too. The restraint is only a single, shared lap bar.

 

[Kender]

Omg that ride was SO FUN. That was 100% worth getting up extra early to nab the VQ, but I will be very happy when it goes to a traditional stand by line.

The queue is beyond amazing. And Toon Town is looking great with the paint refresh in the sections you can see right now

MB+ reacts in the queue.

Glad you had fun. I was also very impressed with the ride. Some people don't really love it for whatever reason (possibly just because it replaced The Great Movie Ride), but for me it was very well done. I do like the recent Mickey cartoons too though, and those are divisive too. the DL queue is better than the WDW version.

Funny thing is I'm actually not a fan of the new cartoons lol. I'll watch them, but I don't like the style. But the style works well for this ride. And I cannot praise that queue enough. I was in awe and sad the line was moving very quickly. But everyone was super chill about letting people quickly grab some photos.

Everywhere or just around Toontown?

The ones that I saw on YouTube were all over DL but one streamer rode MMRR three times. Sorry but once should be enough on a day when many are being turned away. They even bragged about it on their stream.

How? I know you can ride once with VQ and once with a paid LL for a total of two times a day.

With Rise of the Resistance - if someone got a VQ spot but had to leave the park before it was called, they could send a screenshot of the VQ to someone else for them to use. I'm assuming that would still work. At DL, there's no way to verify that the VQ is actually being used by the person who pulled it.

That’s true. Pretty lame to be bragging about riding multiple times in a day when so many people didn’t get a chance to ride at all.

Yup, I think it's rude to brag about it. I think some of those YTers think DL is their personal recording studio.

Honestly, the vloggers are getting out-of-control. I mean, I am fine with their existing, but they get away with too much. At the end of the day they are the same as any other guest. Disney needs to find a way to prevent things like this. I know they are free advertising ans all, so invite them to a "media preview" that precludes them from riding on the actual opening day. I don't know - just a thought.

 

[Disney0010]

They brought that up but somehow had another queue for the afternoon for the third ride.

I rode it twice and I don’t feel sorry about it. If someone finds a way to ride it 3 times I don’t see the big deal.

 

[dieumeye]

For anyone playing along at home… on Sat Jan 28 (first weekend day for MMRR) the 7AM VQ was filled instantly.

If you had a special cake with 10 servings and 20 people, it would be fine if someone who got a piece gave it to someone who didn't, but if they gave it to someone who already had one, it's not wrong but a bit unfair. And a 3rd piece? That's greedy.

But who would say no to getting a third piece if a person offered it to them? Like I’m sorry but it’s not like anyone is being forced to give something up. It’s being offered, if someone who got a vq didn’t want to go anymore or dipped out a spot would be wasted regardless and people would be upset that a spot was wasted.
