Casey Jr. Circus Train
Casey Jr. Circus Train is a cheerful little circus train in Fantasyland. The plucky little engine Casey Jr. comes from the Disney animated film Dumbo. He pulls you over hills and through green valleys, past miniature cottages and villages.
The concept
Casey Jr. Circus Train was already there when Disneyland Park opened in 1955. The sleigh-style carriages came from the carousel that later became King Arthur Carrousel. The well-known theme song was written by Frank Churchill and Ned Washington, who also worked on Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Pinocchio.
The Experience
From the train you see famous places in miniature. Think of Arendelle and Elsa's ice palace from Frozen, the houses of the three little pigs and Prince Eric's palace from The Little Mermaid. You'll also pass the Seven Dwarfs' cottage, Agrabah with the Cave of Wonders, and Toad Hall. And then there's that steep hill: will Casey Jr. make it?

The train passes many of the same miniatures as the Storybook Land Canal Boats, but from a higher vantage point.

Among other things, you'll see Arendelle from Frozen, Agrabah from Aladdin and Cinderella's castle. Who can recognise the most places?
Cheer Casey on
Along the way, the little engine has to climb an "impossible" hill. Will a bit of encouragement help?
