Magic Kingdom's Cars land will be called Piston Peak National Park

Posted | Contributed by bigboy

From the Disney Parks Blog:

Imagine an awe-inspiring wilderness filled with towering trees, snowcapped mountains, breathtaking waterfalls, roaring rivers and impressive geysers. While fictional, Piston Peak is inspired by the Rocky Mountain area and the history and iconic sights of the American Frontier and its national parks.

Inside Piston Peak, guests will be able to see and explore the visitor lodge, Ranger HQ, trails and more all set within the Disney and Pixar “Cars” universe. To make sure these buildings fit naturally within the surrounding majestic landscapes, Imagineers are using a style of architecture called “Parkitecture,” which was developed by the National Park Service to create structures that harmonize with the natural environment.

Tron expanded the footprint as well, not by much, but it’s an expansion.

This park is always very overcrowded and it needs to be expanded not have attractions replaced IMO to handle the crowd.

If Magic Kingdom needed an expansion ….. you know the rest.

And in order to do this, they have decided to curtail most of the operation of the Walt Disney World Railroad, which just recently went back into full operation after a lengthy shutdown during the building of "Tron".

Unfortunately customers can only relate to things they see on video now and don’t appreciate being transported back in time.

Have you conducted a focus group to confirm that? Guardians is a pretty great ride, IP or not.

Uh, they're replacing an underutilized piece of land with several new attractions, restaurants and shops, and beyond that adding an entirely new villains land. Aren't they doing exactly what you're saying they're not?

Here someone says that Disney's future is all about IP based attractions while a large sector of Disney social media loses their collective minds over the closure of a 34 year old IP based attraction.
