So cool you were able to get a short video of the testing of the Mine Train. Great images and information regarding updates. I can't wait to move to WDW and have all the other renovations updated. I hope the renovations and additions are a big payoff for Disney. They have my vote.
Love this site, gives Disney goers an idea what is going on. Also the pics, and information are a great reminder that Disney Mania is Insania. GREAT SITE for a Magical Place
