Take a look at this new Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway art, now on display at Walt Disney Presents in Disney’s Hollywood Studios.

Besides the announcement of this new attraction at the D23 Expo 2017, not much has been discussed about the ride. Today, art work was put on display that depicts what looks like scenes from the new ride.

WATCH – MICKEY AND MINNIE’S RUNAWAY RAILWAY ART:

The ride is said to take guests into the movie screen and onto Goofy’s train, inside of a Mickey cartoon short. The attraction is the first ever Mickey-themed ride-through attraction and was inspired by the newest style of Mickey shorts. Disney animators were said to have partnered with the parks to create the ride.

Guests explore the Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway art display, surrounded by immersive Disney cartoon scenes, eye-catching concept art, and colorful posters capturing the spirit of Walt Disney World.

Below you will see some of the art work, which is now on display. Most of the artwork contains a small Mickey Mouse somewhere within the picture.

Mickey and friends cruise in a bright red car past Goofy, who’s strolling along on his way to Hollywood Studios, capturing the nostalgic magic and playful energy of Walt Disney World in colorful vintage postcard-inspired concept art.

Some of the scenes have a darker tone, which appears to give light to the conflict which might arise during the ride. Below, you see a sad Mickey in a dark forest with four flat tires.

Mickey Mouse cruises in his signature red car through an eerie, fog-filled forest of gnarled trees and mysterious gravestones, bringing to life the playful spookiness guests experience on Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Walt Disney World.

This next scene shows Mickey being held in the air in front of a large crowd, maybe to praise the mouse for a great achievement?
