Newly released concept art from D23 Expo shows a number of changes to the TRON Lightcycle Run coaster since its original announcement in 2017.

Some observations on the differences between the two pieces of concept art.

  • The railroad now appears to pass by the TRON attraction inside an enclosed tunnel.
  • The TRON signage has been removed from above the entrance to a separate marquee in the walkway in-front of the building.
  • Escalators up into the building have been replaced with what appears to be a ramp and elevated pathway.
  • The gravity building where much of the track is located is now clearly visible.
  • Walkways have been revised around the entrance area.

It is standard practice for concept art to change, particularly as production begins after the initial announcement, and changes are still possible.

Not that I have a problem with jogging in general, but I never find that I’m very far in line behind the people who jogged. 🤷🏻‍♂️

It's refreshing to know Disney guests can still run and jog!!

Done it 2 days in a row now and indeed it was a stampede...people running, jogging...saw one woman drop her phone and cause a dawned pile up as she stopped to pick it up.

The VQ system (finally) ends today for Tron! Standby line starts tomorrow September 9, 2024. Scatterplot of every single VQ data point collected for the past 538 days, which includes soft opening and everyday since the ride opened on April 4, 2023. Here's my final update for it and wrap-up post:

And If I was 6’10” and a had a good jump shot I’d be in the NBA.

It’s literally show up an hour early?

I agree, that sun will be burning down on people, also its not the quickest loading for me, with only say 8-10 people in the show room, be interesting how long that line goes. if the line looks long for us, it'll be ILL's all round.

Yes! It’s an excellent ride experience. Definitely a must-do E-ticket. If it was longer and had a properly themed (or better hidden) show-building, it would be among the best additions on property.

If they add it early entry resort guest might be less likely to buy a lighten lane single pass thingy or whatever it's called now. 😉 💰
