◆ Latest milestone
Reopened as The Barnstormer featuring the Great Goofini in the new Storybook Circus area, recasting Goofy as a circus stunt pilot with a new circus-poster queue and theming; the same Vekoma coaster track was retained but the barn-crash finale and its ex-World of Motion Audio-Animatronic chickens were removed.
Closed for the Fantasyland expansion as Mickey's Toontown Fair shut permanently, beginning a roughly 13-month closure to be rethemed; the Barnstormer was the only Toontown Fair ride retained rather than demolished.
Opened as The Barnstormer at Goofy's Wiseacre Farm in Mickey's Toontown Fair, a Vekoma junior steel coaster themed to a runaway flight in Goofy's homemade biplane that crashed through a barn.
