DL Refurb Pics

BigDaddyKyle · 02-09-2005, 09:16 AM

Hi all!!! Thought you might like to see some of the latest refurb pics to come out of DL!!! I know that I am killing the bandwith, but I thought you might like to see whats going on to get DL up to snuff for the big 50th!!!!!

Lets get going!:

The Main Street Train Station refurbishment continues

Synchronized painting ?

For those who haven't heard the news, Mr Lincoln will return after the 50th anniversary celebration:

The Emporium on Main Street is also being repainted:

The Plaza Inn is still missing it's sign:

The facade of Buzz Lightyear is getting a new paint job to match the new Tomorrowland color scheme.

The new color scheme for Tomorrowland has not been announced yet but it's rumored there will be alot more white & alot less gold.

You may have seen many pictures on the internet like this one of the Disneyland Railroad refurb.:

Today I have something better to show you; contruction workers laying out the new train tracks!:

The Mad Tea Party reopens on Friday. The teacups should be restored to their original 'spinning' condition.

The sewer work & walkway repaving continues south of the Matterhorn.

The Mad Hatter gift shop is being refurbished as well.

Today the tiki room juice bar was getting some fresh thatching.

What remained of the broken bridge by the old mine train tribute was removed.

Over in DCA, Grizzy River Run is closed now through Thursday for a brief refurbishment.

Okay that should do it for now!

Enjoy!

Thanks, Kyle! The parks should be incredible when they finish! I didn't realize they had ripped up the railroad tracks! Did they take them up the whole way around, or is that just a partial section being replaced?

By what I understand they are going to pull up all of the RR tracks and place new ones down...The boards were rotting

You are all welcome for the pix, but I can't take complete credit on them. My buddy from CA sent them to me!!!!!

They will be doing all the ties. Te work is being done over night at a rate of about 10 per day.
