Opened: 4 March 2020 (6 years ago)

Best time to ride

Quietest: around 10pm (typically ~10 min posted). Busiest: around 10am (~45 min). In the first 15 minutes after the park opens it typically posts ~15 min.

Typical means the median posted wait across every day in our log at that hour; crowd level, weather and breakdowns move it. For a specific date, the planner adjusts for that day’s forecast crowd.

Posted vs real wait

Disney’s posted waits run high. For Mickey & Minnie's Runaway Railway, a posted 60 minutes at 2pm has typically meant about 44 minutes in line, and at 8pm about 33 (from timed waits people recorded, 2015–2021 — before today’s Lightning Lane system, so treat it as an estimate). DisneyIQ shows both numbers on the live board.

Did you know?

It was the first ride-through attraction themed to Mickey Mouse.

It replaced The Great Movie Ride.
