The Wonderful Peoplemover

Hey, we not only remember this wonderful ride that was put in at Disneyland in 1967, we are constantly reminded of it's existence every time we visit the park because all the tracks are still there that once supported this rolling attraction. In the 90's Imagineering executed a bad idea and installed a new thrill ride call Rocket Rods. This ride was plagued with problems from the start and eventually had to be shut down because of the maintenance nightmare that it was. Well here is a little video clip that shows the history of the people mover complete with all the 60's and early seventies elevator music that played when you rode it. Now this was a good ride to see the park and relax and get away for a while. I do miss it and hope they put it back in some shape or form on the existing track someday soon.
