Hey there, Evan!
Thanks for dropping by
planDisney to ask a question about your upcoming magical vacation. It’s great that you’ll be visiting the theme parks during Halloween Time at the Disneyland Resort!
Oh, how I love the
Disneyland Railroad! A grand circle tour offers about 20 minutes of shade and fresh air, with the added benefit of a relaxing, scenic trip around
Disneyland Park from the comfort of a bench-style seat. As you noticed, the Disneyland Railroad has been closed since August 5 for refurbishment. Unfortunately, an official reopening date has not yet been announced. It sounds like you already know the best place to check for updated information-- the Refurbishment Schedule under the "Park Hours & Info" tab on the
Disneyland mobile app or the
Hours & Events Calendar on
Disneyland.com for the day you plan to visit the theme park. I’ll keep my fingers crossed that the attraction will reopen in time for your trip!
Have you heard that Pumpkin King Jack Skellington has decorated Haunted Mansion with festive touches inspired by
Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas again this fall? It’s a must-do for my family! The standby queue for the attraction is being refurbished, but it is accessible via a virtual queue in the Disneyland mobile app. If you plan to visit
Disney California Adventure Park, be sure to explore Cars Land and experience the specially-themed attractions, like Mater's Graveyard JamBOOree and Luigi's Honkin' Haul-O-Ween!
I hope this helps, Evan, and that your vacation is filled with pixie-dusted moments! Please feel free to
write back and ask any other
Disneyland Resort questions you may have.
Wishing you magic,
Courtney
