Christmas Carol Train

Disney's Christmas Carol Train came in town.

Of course it wouldn't be a Disney event without a Disney line. What a great greeting when you arrive - a 4.5 hour wait sign.
Here was one section of the weaving line. Disney is so great at hiding their lines so you don't really think there is much more and then...BAM they hit you with a whole other weaving section and THEN another! They have perfected the art to lines.
Notice the change from light to dark. The event was to stop at 7pm and we didn't leave until after 9 pm and we got there at about 6pm. There was still hours more of people to get through the train! Man can Disney market their events and movies.

Clay molds of the voices of the actors themselves
Models is how they helped design the movie
There were models for everything
Look how intricate these models are inside. Amazing!
Us inside the train. It only took us about 3 hours to get to the train. The ironic thing is that I would never wait even half that long for a ride at Disney and this was a lot more lame. Ah well...I guess I can say that I saw the train.
