Overview
- Visitors reported that on October 14, 2026 the single‑rider entrance for Test Track at EPCOT was closed for the day while cast members tested a new boarding procedure.
- The closure was first shared by an on‑site guest on X and was confirmed by multiple outlets but Walt Disney World Resort has not issued a public statement explaining the test.
- Earlier this year Disney ran a similar experiment at Expedition Everest that replaced a separate single‑rider queue by sorting standard‑queue parties into two groups to fill trains, and that attraction’s single‑rider line closed permanently in September.
- Several other Walt Disney World attractions still use single‑rider lines, including Millennium Falcon: Smugglers Run, Rock ’n’ Roller Coaster, and Remy’s Ratatouille Adventure, so any wider change would not affect all rides at once.
- If the Test Track trial becomes permanent it could reduce a common fast‑access option for solo riders and change how cast members load vehicles, which could alter wait times and guest choices across peak hours.
