Knott’s Berry Farm said that the grand re-opening for Camp Snoopy and the Calico Mine Train Ride would be June 14, 2014.
Knott’s decided last year, that after the success of the refurbishment, including new show scenes and more, of the Timber Mountain Log Ride, that its other classic Bud Hurlbut designed ride, the Calico Mine Train Ride, needed some of the same work.
The same company, Garner Holt, has been involved in the refurbishment since the ride closed in January. The newly refurbished ride will feature new figures, and a complete redo of all the classic scenes, as seen in this photo of the steamy mud pots room.
At the same time Knott’s embarked on a redo of Camp Snoopy, making it feel more kid-friendly, and like a camp in the high Sierras.
This refurbishment also features the addition of three new rides, as well as an update to the steam railroad in the camp that will now have scenes straight out of the “Peanuts” comic strip.
