The Disneyland Railroad (DRR), originally the Euro Disneyland Railroad (EDRR), is a 3-foot (Шаблон:Track gauge) narrow gauge heritage railroad in Disneyland Park in the Disneyland Paris Resort in Marne-la-Vallée, France, which was inaugurated on April 12, 1992, the park's opening day. Its route is Шаблон:Convert in length and is used by park guests for transportation to other areas of the park, or simply for the experience of The Grand Circle Tour.[1]

Experience

Main Street Station is seen upon entering Disneyland Park, in Main Street, U.S.A.. From there, guests can start their journey around the park, with a recorded narration speaking in both French and English about visited landscapes.

Trains first cross a diorama recreation of the Grand Canyon, complete with wild animals and storm effects. This diorama also hides the show building for Phantom Manor.[2] As they arrive in Frontierland, travelling behind the Rivers of the Far West, they first stop in Frontierland Depot.[2]

Departing from Frontierland, trains then travel through the Adventureland section, allowing guests to discover the Temple of Peril and witnessing the inside of the ride Pirates of the Caribbean, before arriving at Fantasyland Station,[2]located in the British part of England in the Fantasyland section (which also includes Peter Pan's Flight and Alice's Curious Labyrinth) where guests are given a whole view on the land.

Leaving Fantasy, trains venture through the facade of It's a Small World.[2] Finally, in the Discoveryland section, the train stops above the Star Tours - The Adventures Continue and Mickey's PhilharMagic attraction at Discoveryland Station. The journey comes to an end while returning to Main Street.[2]

Rolling stock

The Disneyland Railroad operates four 4-4-0 steam locomotives; the first three were built by H.P. Phillips Company in 1992, and the fourth was built by Severn Lamb in 1993.[3] These locomotives are all based on the No. 1 C.K. Holliday locomotive of the original Disneyland Railroad, and are built to essentially the same specifications, with only cosmetic differences.[4] There are also twenty passenger cars, with five assigned to each locomotive.
