New Frontierland Props Include Whiskey, Rifles, and Horseshoes at Magic Kingdom

As construction continues for Tiana’s Bayou Adventure at the Magic Kingdom, we noticed some new Frontierland props placed in front of the Frontierland station as the area continues to get a refresh with props common to the period. Themed crates and barrels with items varying from horseshoes to flintlock rifles can be seen stacked as if they are either waiting to be loaded onto the train, or have just been unloaded from the train.

Frontierland Props

While the props look perfect for a photo opportunity, they appear behind a fence, and the ground in front of them is covered in pine straw. So while guests can’t stand too close to the props, they still make for a nice backdrop in the highly themed area of the Magic Kingdom.

Upon closer inspection, you can see that among the props are lanterns, soap, railroad spikes, unknown materials in crates and barrels, including a barrel marked “XXX”, typically indicative of moonshine. The next stack of items includes horseshoes, whiskey, a crate marked “The Humidor Quality Leather”, lumber, flintlock rifles, and more lanterns. Various crates are marked as “Fragile”.

While appropriate items for Frontierland’s time period, many of these items are prohibited in Walt Disney World parks.

PHOTOS: Roofing Added to The Cake Bake Shop at Disney’s BoardWalk

During our most recent trip to Disney’s BoardWalk, we saw crew members adding steel roofing to the dormers on The Cake Bake Shop by Gwendolyn Rogers. The new table-service restaurant and quick-service bakery is set to open sometime this year.

There’s still an uncovered metal framework on the front of the building that will be the bakery’s marquee.

The Cake Bake Shop recently began hiring for several positions, with open interviews this week. They put out a call for culinary leaders late last year. The website also lists some positions with open applications.
