Walt Disney World Railroad, Heritage railroad in Magic Kingdom Park, Florida, US
The Walt Disney World Railroad operates four restored steam locomotives on a 1.5-mile track encircling the Magic Kingdom theme park grounds.
The railroad acquired its locomotives from the Ferrocarriles Unidos de Yucatán in Mexico, with Roger Broggie leading their restoration before the 1971 park opening.
The railroad continues Walt Disney's appreciation for train travel, incorporating authentic steam engines and vintage passenger cars into the Magic Kingdom experience.
Passengers can board or exit the train at three stations throughout Magic Kingdom: Main Street USA, Frontierland, and Fantasyland, with departures every 20 minutes.
Each locomotive requires 200 gallons of water and 25 gallons of fuel per hour to transport visitors through different themed sections of the park.
Location: Florida
Official opening: October 1, 1971
Part of: Walt Disney World Resort, rail transport in Walt Disney Parks and Resorts
