Did you know? Before Big Thunder Mountain Railroad and Splash Mountain existed, Frontierland had a huge train station, almost as large as Main Street, U.S.A. Although I sadly don't have any pictures, the old station was very open -- there was really nothing else past the Country Bear Jamboree. At this time, there were only 2 stops on the train. I'm not entirely sure when the train stationed was minimized, but on my husband's park map from 1980, it is still there.

Very interesting. I never really thought about the fact that these attractions took up room from the train station. Makes sense though.
ReplyDeleteI remember this red station, there was a lot of open space around it at the time :). It was closer to Peco's Bill than the current one is today where the gates are for the parade enter and exit. Thanks for sparking my memories.
