While this was initially a let-down, it ended up being a nice break from the crowds! The conductors were still working at their station, delivering the sad news to visitors but welcoming us to have a seat, take a break, take pictures... They even gave us each a sheet of Mickey's 90th Birthday stickers! We took a couple goofy photos (pun not intended!) and I tried taking a family selfie (direct-sunlight fail), and we just put our bags down and relaxed.
It looks out onto the entrance so you can see all the people excited as they come in! I don't know if they would let people have a full-blown picnic on the seats, but I'd recommend trying it! At least a little snack break! The sky might even smile at you!
It's a great place for railroad fanatics too because, in the station, there are some display cases of train models and other train paraphernalia. The top floor has a great view of Main Street, USA:
You can see the castle, the Christmas tree, and some Christmas decorations! I bet it looks great at night, too. On the inside they have old nickelodeons that actually work (and are free!) with black and white shorts and cartoons.
I got excited and thought this was Oswald out of the corner of my eye. Looks more like Felix. Oddly, they don't even show the cat that was in the bag!
A nickelodeon!
Just gorgeous!
So on super crowded days, or if your feet are aching, remember the stationary WDW railroad where they let you stay a while and take it all in!
