The Hong Kong Disneyland Railroad (HKDLRR) is a narrow gauge railroad at Hong Kong Disneyland. It opened together with the park on September 12, 2005. The Hong Kong Disneyland Railroad is the first attraction seen when entering the park. The train transports guests around the park which is also known as the "Grand Circle Tour".

Train service was suspended since February 18, 2019 for Hong Kong Disneyland expansion project about World of Frozen and reopened at November 17, 2023, where special departure celebrating reopening of HKDLRR holds at November 15, 2023 afternoon.

Built by Severn Lamb in 2004, the Hong Kong Disneyland Railroad has two passenger trains and three locomotives:

Frank G. Wells[]

HKDRR Frank G Wells

The Frank G. Wells

This locomotive is named after Frank Wells, one of the presidents of WED. There are no coaches for this locomotive, so it uses the same cars that the Walter E. Disney and Roy O. Disney uses, provided that one of the locomotives are not running.

Journey[]

Hong Kong Disneyland Railroad Main Street Station

Main Street Station

Just right after the train departs Main Street Station with a recorded narration commenting on visited landscapes, the train travels through Adventureland that given guests a view of Karibuni Marketplace and Theater in the Wild, the walkway to Grizzly Gulch and the Rivers of the Jungle River Cruise. Also a walkway to Toy Story Land and a view of Fairy Tale Forest.

Then the train arrives in Fantasyland and makes a stop at the Fantasyland Station, next to the walkway to World of Frozen. The train now departs Fantasyland Station with guests given a view of Fantasy Gardens, Mad Hatter Tea Cups, the walkway to It's a Small World, and travels underneath the queue line of Storybook Theater.

Now, guests arrive in Tomorrowland where they view Hyperspace Mountain and the some of the tracks of Autopia. It later shows the buildings of Expo Shop and Ant-Man and The Wasp: Nano Battle! and a walkway to Iron Man Experience.

After, the train finally arrives back at the Main Street Station.


Trivia[]

  • The steam locomotives are actually fake. The tenders are the real locomotives that haul the trains. They run on diesel fuel while typical steam audio (chuffing, steam whistle, etc.) are emitted from speakers. This is due to Hong Kong's strict emissions standards, which also served as a cost-effective measure that obviated the need to build new steam locomotives, or the finding and transport to Hong Kong of suitable existing narrow gauge steam locomotives. Walt Disney would not be happy with this design if he was still living though.
