The Disney Store has marked the Walt Disney World 50th Anniversary set down 50% (was $500 and is now $250). The two add on cars are also marked down 50%. If you wanted one of these sets, but was on the fence due to the high price, now would be the time to pull the trigger. My guess is that they won't last too long at half price.
Not sure if I can post links to store sites, so hopefully this is ok: go to Shopdisney(dot)com and search for "lionel".

they are sold out
Thanks for the update
Guess I was correct that they wouldn't last long. I received the e-mail from Shop Disney around 8:00a this morning (I had put the set in the cart several times, but then decided it was too expensive at $500 - guess they kept track and let me know when price went down - you can also add stuff to "wish list" and I'm sure they'd let you know when price changes). They sold out in around 7 hours.
Interesting. I was just at Disney this past weekend and saw one of those sets in the store. I didn't look at the price because I wasn't very interested given how high they were before. However, at $250 I probably would have been. 
The on-line Disney Store has these back in stock now, but at 20% off instead of 50%. In my humble opinion, they are still pricey at a 20% discount (still $100 over the price of a similar Disney Frozen 2 set at large dealers), but since the 50th anniversary celebration ended at the end of March, this may be a last chance (aside from auction sites) to pick these up if you've been "on the fence".
