You have to give it to everyone who works for Disney, they really know how to roll out the "red carpet." Today was a day filled with wonder, magic, snow and smiles, just to name a few.

The Disney Train, A Christmas Carol, rolled into Charleston on Friday and left late this evening, but before it did we had the chance to jump on board to learn how the movie was made. 

We were first greeted by the train conductor, who validated our boarding passes and directed us to board the train.  Upon boarding the train we were greeted by the staff and walked through the first two cars.  The walls were covered with digital TVs with images from the movie and a few clay sculptures of the film's main characters. 

Just above are the clay models of Scrooge and Bob Cratchett (they looked so real).

The last portion of the tour we were able to take our photo and then have them morphed into one of four characters.  The photos, once downloaded, will be emailed to us and we can either download them ourselves or have Wal-Mart print them.  

Just before we exited the car we got our ticket to see a preview of the movie and we snagged a last minute photo of Josh.  Did we mention that there were Christmas Carolers.  Yep, they were in full dress and wassailing with the best of them.  Not bad for 75 degree weather.

Judging from what we saw today, we are sure this movie will be amazing.  The ten minute 3D preview just blew us away.  The effects are life like and the movie itself takes you back to the age of Charles Dickens.  

Disney's A Christmas Carol is set to be in theatres November 6.
