The voice of Casey Jr. is Margret Wright.
The circus train cages originally were part of the King Arthur Carrousel before Walt had the merry-go-round alterered to just have horses on it.
The sleighs used on the Casey Jr. Circus Train were put there when the ride was built and were a part of the origional Sunnyside Merry-Go-Round that was later re-themed into the King Arthur Carrousel.
Did you know that the Casey Jr. Locomotive that pulls the Casey Jr. Circus Train in Fantasyland is not actually pulling the train at all!
In actual fact, the train is being pulled by the circus music organ wagon behind the locomotive. A hidden conbustion engine inside the wagon hauls the rest of the train whilst pushing the locomotive forwards!
Casey Jr. appears in the Disney animated movie "Dumbo", which was released October 23, 1941.
When Fantasyland was revamped in 1989 the track for the Casey Jr. Circus Train was completely replaced.
