Snow White Mine Cart Ride Fire

Post by kosmosworld » Nov Mon 10, 2014 12:25 pm

I know the attraction caught fire 2 weeks ago. Does anyone know if the attraction was shut down, or is it still operating?

It was only shut down for a couple of hours, and re-opened the same night.

Planning a trip soon?

Yes. Next week.
My sons have been waiting for that attraction since they opened up the new addition of the Fantasyland!

BTW-Thank you for that info! I would have thought it would have been closed down for a bit to repair the damage.

From what I had seen reported, it was the decorative materials on top that caught on fire due to fall out from the fireworks. It was back up and running very soon after. I was worried it was the ride itself as that thing looks to run during all operating hours!

I'm sure that ride is now better doused with water nightly during "Wishes" to make sure it doesn't happen again. Which is good, since we're going there in about a month.
