At a special dedication ceremony Celebrated May 2nd, 2014 at Magic Kingdom Park, Walt Disney World Parks and Resorts Chairman Tom Staggs announced that the “Crowning Jewel” of New Fantasyland, the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train, will officially open on May 28.
By Tom Parker Its one of the biggest icons at the Disney Parks, but few actually know what meant the construction of it!
Space Mountain launched its first ride on January 15, 1975 at Magic Kingdom, the ride then became one of the top Disney attractions around the world, also one of the most popular among guests. The ride was built in 1977 at Disneyland Park. Have a look at this amazing construction photos of the first ever Space Mountain. by Jennifer Fickley-Baker, Social Media Manager for Disney Parks Blog Walking through New Fantasyland and watching the evolution of Seven Dwarfs Mine Train has been fascinating, seeing such a large attraction rise up from scaffolding and into a beautiful mountain covered with lush trees and colorful wildflowers. Let’s take a quick photo walk around it today with these shots. Earlier this year, Walt Disney Imagineering shared that two props (Big animatronic Vultures) from the former Snow White’s Scary Adventures attraction had been placed in Seven Dwarfs Mine Train as a nod to the previous attraction. Those vultures can now be seen at the top of the first big “climb” in the attraction, surrounded by stacks of crates – containing newly mined jewels, perhaps?

The Central Plaza will receive a second ring, adding more walkways, new viewing space for the Fireworks shows, expanded sitting area for Casey's Corner and The Plaza Restaurants.
By Tom M. Parker Disney Parks Blog, held a Live Chat with Imagineer Dave Minichiello, about the development and construction of the final piece inside the New Fantasyland Expansion.
Minichiello started working on this project over two years ago, he adds "I started as an art director on the Mermaid attraction and will be taking Mine Train all the way through opening as creative director." By Tom Parker Our friends at Walt Disney Imagineering just shared these new images with us, which showcase some of the smaller elements inside the attraction’s interactive queue area and mine scene.
According to them, a lot of the detail you see here was hand-carved by Imagineers – sturdy logs, crumbling bark, rough wood planks, thick beams, smooth rocks and rusty hinges – that all appear to serve as “support structures” for the mine. After each item was carved, they were then painted to look aged and weathered through application of various colors of paint. Some parts have been aged to look older than others.
