Despite promised “enhancements,” Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Disneyland Park looks very similar to its counterpart at Disney’s Hollywood Studios! Though Walt Disney World Resort fans mourned the loss of the beloved Great Movie Ride, stepping into the screen for an adventure on Goofy’s train quickly became a Disney Parks fan-favorite adventure.
Theme Park journalist Scott Gustin shared the following images of Toontown models, showing what the Disneyland Park Land will look like after construction finishes:

In addition to the ride’s exterior, you can also see stills from inside the ride at the bottom of the photo. They look remarkably similar to scenes on Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Walt Disney World Resort. Of course, Disney Imagineers didn’t elaborate on what changes are coming to the ride.
Another Theme Park Journalist, Brooke Geiger McDonald, shared an all-new poster advertising Mickey & Minnie’s Runaway Railway at Disneyland Park:
