Trolley Track Lawsuit

Woman Sues Disney World After Tripping & Falling Over Magic Kingdom Trolley Tracks

The lawsuit was filed by Rhonda Smith of Frankfort, Kentucky against Walt Disney Parks and Resorts. Filed on December 22, 2025, she claimed that the trolley tracks did not adequately have marked steel rails and flangeways near a castle attraction. It caused her to trip and fall, resulting in permanent injuries and substantial medical expenses.

The lawsuit explained that on October 24, 2025 at approximately 5:00 pm, she was in the vicinity of the embedded track for a “train or trolley” on Main Street, U.S.A. These create changes in level, edges, and gaps where the rail meets the surrounding ground.

She claimed that the area lacked adequate warnings, guardrails, cones, stanchions, or other measures necessary to protect guests from tripping hazards associated with the embedded track during nighttime crowd conditions and parade operations.

Disney responded to the lawsuit, and they defended that Smith was negligent and should have used reasonable care for her own safety. In addition, they state she breached her duty by failing to pay adequate attention to her surroundings.

As of July 14, 2026, Smith gave a Court Notice of Voluntary Dismissal with Prejudice. This essentially means she asked to end her own lawsuit permanently and cannot ever refile the same claim in court.
