Wow, 5 hours and still no replies.

Anyway, what is Casey Jr.?

What is Pete’s Silly Sideshow?


Thanks for the update!

Those were the questions I was wondering about. Also that it's going to take another year for the other half of Storybook to open and that the Mine Train will be late 2013 which sounds about right.

Images of DCA and all their construction they have had over the last couple years is all that enters my mind when thinking about how hectic the area around the mine train will be until it finally opens...

Anyway, what is Casey Jr.? What is Pete’s Silly Sideshow?

Casey Jr will be a mini-water play area, kind of like Donald's Boat in Toontown, but this will be themed around the Casey Jr train from Dumbo.

Pete's Silly Slideshow is a meet-n-greet area with all kinds of characters from all over dressed in various circus related garb. So, I would guess, for instance, you'll see Ringmaster Mickey, maybe Goofy in his strongman outfit, etc.

We are planning on going in April 2012 so I'm hopeful that at least Dumbo, Goofini and Case Jr. I know the mine train will take awhile but wished it was sooner than late 2013. Hopefully they leave SWSA open until then.
