Disney is now celebrating another major construction milestone for the much-anticipated TRON Roller Coaster coming to Magic Kingdom Park at the Walt Disney World Resort as the first steel support columns are now being installed!
The TRON attraction is based on the guest-favorite attraction TRON Lightcycle Power Run at Shanghai Disneyland. This coaster-style attraction will allow riders to board a train of two-wheeled Lightcycles for a thrilling race through the digital frontier.
The steel columns will serve as the framework that’ll support the coaster’s track in Tomorrowland. And today, Disney gave a special look at the columns and the progress Walt Disney Imagineers, Disney cast members and project teams have made in bringing the attraction to life. Take a look at the video below:
