Disney Trains & Park Sounds

Post by CC4455 »

Does anyone know if there is a website where I would be able to download or access some of the sounds in the Disney parks? I am in progress of creating a Disneyland layout that focuses on the trains of Disneyland and Walt Disney World and I want to add sounds to my layout like the Walt Disney World Railroad (or Disneyland Railroad) spiel, Monorail Spiel, Big Thunder Mountain, Casey Jr., etc. I am having trouble finding recordings of these sounds though and I was not sure if they existed anywhere on the internet.

Thanks!

The only such website that I know of is this one:

A few years ago in both Disneyland and the Magic Kingdom they used to have CD kiosks where you could burn your own custom CDs of various attraction spiels, including those of the DRR, monorails, Mine Train Thru Nature's Wonderland, etcetera. They were called "Disneyland Forever" and "Walt Disney World Forever" CDs. To park spiel collectors like myself, they were an absolute gold mine because they had some spiels that had never been available before...or since.

The spiel selection on the Disneyland ones was much larger and better than what was available on the Walt Disney World ones. The kiosks suddenly disappeared about 10 years ago though, never to be seen again. Thankfully, I made and bought two of the "Disneyland Forever" CDs and one "Walt Disney World Forever" CDs before the kiosks went away.

It was too bad since they were one of the best ideas to come out of the Disney merchandising department in a *long* time. I still listen to and cherish the three CDs in my collection.
