The Mark Twain, a replica steamboat that cruises the River of America at Disneyland, caught fire during yesterday’s showing of Fantasmic!, a nighttime show that uses the Mark Twain as a show element.

 The Disneyland Fire Department quickly controlled the small blaze and reported no damage. The department noted that such a small fire would typically extinguish itself.

From the released statement:

During a showing of Fantasmic last night, exhaust from the Mark Twain caught on fire from a show element in which flames ignite on the Rivers of America. The Disneyland Fire Department noted that such a minor fire typically would extinguish itself, but that they were on scene to assist. There was no damage.
