Talking about Frontierland

In the last year Frontierland was disputed. It moved around in the park for months. Lastly we left it and it fell out of the park's layout. Then I started a comeback of this realm. I built a Frontierland, located in the letf area of the park It was influenced by an old song called 'The Big Rock Candy Mountains'. I don't know, whether you know this song. The song describes a hobo's vision of utopia, a place where the "hens lay soft boiled eggs" and there are "cigarette trees". The song is also rather ironic and satirical in that it additionally describes modified versions of things that one wouldn't think should exist in paradise at all, such as police (with wooden legs) and jails (made of tin), but sound appealing to someone whose lifestyle runs afoul of the law.
On the pictures you see the result. But there weren't enough things adapted from the song. So I decided to design a modified version. So our new Frontierland will be located in the upper-left section of the park and will feature a small extension with props from the song. The real Frontierland will feature the normal stuff we knew from Frontierland, like Big Thunder Mountain or the Shooting Arcade. In the Big Rock Candy Mountain Section we will find some rides for smaller children like a ferris wheel or a western merry-go-round. The main attraction is a little coaster called 'Big Rock Candy Mountain Mine Train'. I know: very creative. You can see this attraction on the picture above and in the video (right site or YoutubeChannel). So let us come to an end. You can watch the video the video, which inspired me to do that candy-section in the description box of the Big Rock Candy Mountain-Video i made. Next time you get some information about a uncommen section for a Magic Kingdom. Stay tuned...
