Whether it be the most popular ride in the park, or an underrated favorite, we’ve all got those must-do attractions. Today, one of the most popular rides in Magic Kingdom is down.
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad is a classic Disney attraction, and even though it’s had some touch-ups over the years, things happen! It is currently down and Cast Members are standing around it.
