Disneyland Railroad (Paris)

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, and 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]

Then trains 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]

Fantasyland Station was located in the British part of England in Fantasyland section (which also includes Peter Pan's Flight and Alice's Curious Labyrinth) where guests are given a whole view on the land, and then trains even 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]

The Disneyland Railroad operates four 4-4-0 steam locomotives, the first three were built by H.P. Phillips Company in 1992, while the fourth was made 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.
