Big Thunder closed thru 10/24... ???

[I take the Ferry]

Did we know about this?

disneyworld.com is listing BTMRR "closed for refurbishment" through October 24.

Is this a surprise, or did I miss all the discussion about it being shut down?

Nope, it was released early last month. Thankfully it opens a couple of days before we get there.

Did we know about this? Yep.

From rehabs (http://www.intercot.com/infocentral/calendar/refurb.asp)
Big Thunder Mountain Railroad will be closed for refurbishment October 1-24, 2007.

We weren't too happy about this, but at least we'll have 4 days after the rehab to ride since we don't leave until the 29th.

Thanks, Jason.

I've made a habit of reading your "tidbits" posts over in News & Rumors, guess I missed this one.

Yes the ride is closed as we just returned this past weekend.
