- Doesn't Thurl Ravenscroft also do the narrator voice for the Train that circles
- the park (at least the one at Disneyland, CA).

- Trivia: Given the length of track that the Disney Train has traveled over the
- past 30(?) years, approximately how manys times (according to the
- narration soundtrack) could the Train have encircled the globe?
