This is How Magic Kingdom Opened on June 2nd 2013 (Restored in 4k 60FPS)

On January 8, 2017 the last of the Train Station Rope Drop ceremony’s took place at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. This was a long running tradition for early park goers to watch as the Mayor of Main Street, in his unique and energetic way, and accompanied by some fantastic old style song and dance, would welcome Mickey, Minnie and a host of character friends as they steamed in on the Walt Disney World Railroad!!!
Then everyone would count down to officially open the park for the day as a quick flash of fireworks sprang out from behind the Main Street Train Station.

The show was replaced by the current opening ceremony (Let the Magic Begin) that takes place in front of the castle. Although the new show has its advantages by allowing more guests to make their way along Main Street before the park officially opens, and it allows for the crowds to spread out more, nothing quite compares to the energy and fun of watching those old song and dance routines, watching the Mayor welcoming and waving to everyone, and seeing all those Disney characters rolling in on the Walt Disney World Railroad.
