Younger generation won’t ever realize how cool this ride was: best memories ever with my Grandparents!! 😞💓
Gen Z is too busy worrying about their genders and pronouns to appreciate literally anything.
@dobees 818 Ohhh, noooo... someone who gets their propaganda from Fox "news". Grow up.
OMG you are so right. I haven't been up there in twenty years unfortunately because of health issues I would have to do a wheelchair if I were to ever go up there again but in the meantime yes I remember the old people mover I remember the old Captain Nemo the old carousel and whenever I look through these little video clips I always say show me from the 1990s oh yes and pirates of the Caribbean used to be better, now it seems like just a waste of space
I loved the noise that used to make on the tracks also
Still my favorite ride!!
“You have escaped Tron’s game grid for now users...” then cut right back to the elevator muzak. So awesome!!!! THIS was and still is my Tomorrowland! Thank you for the video.
I honestly have a crush on Corey Burton's evil computer voice. (I also have a crush on a very similar non-Disney role of his, Brainiac.)
I consider that elevator music to be the evil computer virus's "theme song." I was only 6 when I rode this visiting from Japan in 1994.
They should just revamp the Peoplemover. The track has been there for ages unused. It's a Walt Disney classic.
This is (was) one of my all-time favorite rides. That said, to bring the ride back would mean to restructure it entirely (including the buildings it goes through) in order to comply with the Americans With Disabilities Act. If they'd've left it running, it would have been grandfathered...but somebody had the bright idea of Rocket Rods.
I think the best window of opportunity for a complete overhaul, is when Star Wars Land officially opens. Yes, a complete update of Tomorrowland. It will be well past time for the next "1967" or "1998".
That should include an all new People Mover, and something better for the circle theater building. When S-W-L opens, I would divert guest traffic in its direction. Then, bite the bullet and close off the T-L area, excluding the Submarine Voyage and Monorail. Get out the big machines and tools, and get to work. It will benefit the park greatly in the long run.
5keeper7ful I just wish they brought back the retrofuturistic style of Tomorrowland. It looks way more futuristic than the 1995 new Tomorrowland. Doesn't feel like the future. :P
The reason why they cant bring it back is because the tracks are, in essence, structurally unsafe. This is because in the late 90s, they converted it to Rocket Rods, which was a semi-fast ride. Not only was the ride a failure, but it put so much stress on the tracks that they had no choice but to abandon it. The infrastructure runs through too many buildings within Tomorrowland and overall would be hard to demolish and remake, unless you would be willing for them to close down the Tomorrowland section of a park for at least a couple years (which I don't think is ideal). However, I do wish that they kept the Peoplemover, but I understand why we cant have it.
@Akira Fudo I think the other major reason they won't bring back the people mover is it didn't see much use. It was my favorite ride. But part of the reason it was my favorite is it never had a line. For years, I would go on the ride and it would be literally just me and my mom. During the entire time, you wouldn't see any other person on the ride in any of the other cars (much like most of this video). Everyone would rather stand in a long line to ride Space Mountain or Autopia or Monorail than go on this totally open ride. There's also the idea that an earthquake could strand people on the ride. And the monumental cost of refurbishing the tracks. But hey, if they'll keep stuff like monorail and splash mountain, those aren't really good reasons.
Of course, that doesn't mean I'm giving up advocating for its return. They need to bring it back just for me! Gimme gimme gimme! What confuses me is that other attractions like Circle Vision were always packed, but they took that out.
This was back in a time when you could stand at the end of Tomorrowlandland see everything moving. Rocket jets, Autopia cars, skyway buckets, monorail trains, peoplemover cars, submarines and the carousal theater. It was very kinetic.
For some strange reason, the instrumental music to the now-defunct Peoplemover at Disneyland has always reminded me of the 1967 hit record by the Fifth Dimension 'Up, Up and Away in My Beautiful Balloon.' As a matter of fact, the Peoplemover was my personal favorite ride at Disneyland.
Mine too❗👍
I have a deep respect for archivists who record things knowing that one day their footage will be so interesting and valuable!
As I am only 13, I have never been able to ride the people mover but unlike my family, whenever we visit I find myself staring in awe at the abandoned tracks, wondering where they lead. After many visits and about 4 years of observing these tracks and finding little bits here and there, watching this gave me chills. Geez, I love this. Also BRING BACK THE PEOPLEMOVER PLEEEEAAASE
Growing up in the 70’s, this is what Disneyland will always be to me. Low crowds , rides like the people mover, simplicity at its best. No two hour waits to get on a ride because “AP’s or KeyHolders” made the park experience terrible. Hope they bring back this slow moving, relaxing ride!
OK, I’m sold. It’s time to bring it back, to Disneyland. Disney World spent a lot of money, and about a year of downtime, to rebuild their PeopleMover. It’s Disneyland’s turn.
WOW! Man I miss this attraction. They really need to figure out how to bring this back.
the foundation for a lot of the supports is compromised, would need a ground up rework
I loved this ride. Please bring this ride back, it was so nice and relaxing.
Yup.
Me love people mover. 😍
Did you know Eisner axed it just because of this? He didn't want someplace for people to just six and relax.
@@TheTiktok4321 :( no more people mover
@@cocoaman1564 there is talk of its return.
Such a relaxing ride. I always liked the retro, outdated feel of it too. R.I.P. Peoplemover.
BRING BACK THE PEOPLEMOVER DISNEY!!!
+Cutelatinguy2 didn't it kill two people XD (well they killed themselves)
Ed D I'm sure at some point there probably were some people who didn't obey the safety instructions
and got hurt or maybe killed.
+Cutelatinguy2
DITTOS!
Cutelatinguy2
Yes, at two people got killed on the Peoplemover....I read that in Mouse Tales-an excellent book that details the trials and tribulations of Disneyland...there was a sequel too-
This never gets old
Huge thank you for making this retrospective piece on the Peoplemover...my favorite ride at Disneyland as a child!
Ken Hayashida I loved it as well. It was the best when your feet were tired and I I just loved overlooking the rides.
I would want the superspeed tunnel back too. Maybe TRON Legacy?
Damn I miss old Disneyland
To this day, Monorail is my favorite ride. It was the best ride to get away from the crowds and just relax for a bit. Never waited more than 20 minutes to get on (and that was on a busy day). This takes me back. Im sad for kids today that will never know this.
OMG!!! I miss this!!! Almost made me cry!!!

"I AM Krypton..."@@kellyweingart3692
I really miss those vintage days at Disneyland. Classic narration and unique attractions! You are missed Mr Disney.
3:22, ohhhhh man. I miss that arcade. On a hot or crowded day it was neat to go hang out in there.
I'd play Galaga and some car racing game that you would sit in and steer, it had a turbo boost, but I can't remember what it was called. Probably something obvious like "Turbo Booster." LOL
New dialogue in PeopleMover 2.0 if Disney makes it
0:42 The vehicle doors are closing, please remain seated during the tour.
1:19 You are now beginning the tour of Tomorrowland, aboard the PeopleMover 2.0 a revamp on a classic.

2:00 Hello, i am C-3PO and this is my counterpart, R2-D2 *whirr* (archive voices)
2:05 Welcome to the Star Tours Tomorrowland spaceport (archive voice)
3:06 You about to enter one of Tomorrowland's most exciting attractions, (Hyper)space mountain. Please remain seated.
4:19 In this theater, see Star Wars, the path of the Jedi, a new and exciting show.
4:48 In Star Wars Launch bay, see some Star wars collectibles and props on display.
7:01 Above you is the Monorail, guided by sleek Monorail trains. It has carried over *input number and update it every 6 months* million guests since it's opening in 1959.
9:44 We are now passing Buzz Lightyear's Astro Blasters, ride on a vehicle and defeat the Evil Emperor Zurg.
8:30 Below you is The Finding Nemo Submarine Voyage
I would want the Superspeed tunnel back too. Maybe TRON Legacy this time?
@@MrMywildside Only if they keep Corey Burton's iconic villainous computer voice. (This time make it closer to another iconic evil AI role of his... hint: Krypton)
That was awesome. I think the newer rides are more fun, but there was something about the sit-and-chill rides. I miss the Skyway a lot. I also miss the Rocket Jets being as high as they were. And I think the sleek white look to the Land was better than what they have now.
The People Mover was my favorite ride at Disneyland, especially at night. You didn't need a bucking roller coaster experience to enjoy the ride around Tomorrowland. I really miss that experience.
This was better than any roller coaster ride to me.
The People Mover was a ride you got on because the line was never long, and the goal of any kid at Disneyland was to get on as many rides as possible.
Thank u so much, u took me back to my childhood in the 80’s - such a good time!!! I can’t believe the peoplemover is gone 😢
6:19 That cute lil '60s instrumental music puts my soul at ease.
Man the Tron section was soooo cheesy! Loved it! So glad I got to "experience" it.
Corey Burton as an evil AI
My favorite ride as a child in the 70s. 🥰
This is so cool and very nostalgic! I miss the People Mover. I’m guessing this was filmed sometime in the early 90s due to the Disney Afternoon decor along the pathway towards Small World. Wish they’d bring People Move back along with the Skyway to Disneyland
This is really nostalgic. Since I was born in 1980, all of my childhood DL trips involved the People Mover. It's silly to say this but it was my favorite ride.
It was such a great way to break up the day and have a relaxing tour experience. Then you always felt rejuvenated with a second wind to take on the park again after. I was genuinely saddened when they decided to close it down.
I just have a hard time believing that Disney doesn't have the resources to fix this track and bring back the people mover!
It's obvious why they don't have the resources. Due to laws and safety standards that have been introduced since Disney stopped operating the track, it would be illegal and dangerous to reopen it. They would have to demolish the track (which would also require them to demolish every building in Tomorrowland as the track is embedded into the buildings), build new track that complies with the new standards and then rebuild the demolished buildings. This would take a very long to complete and would force Disney to close all of Tomorrowland for just as long.
oh they definitely have the resources, their priorities are more focused on tearing down splash mountain to please a small percent of its guest...
How I miss those good ‘ol days! I remember the People Mover pre-Tron. I also remember those other rides like Circlevision and the rest. 😌

Thank you for taking the time to put this together! Took me right back to some very happy times of my youth!
... and I'm right back at my childhood. Much, much love.
Thanks for allowing us to visit old memories! Man, I miss the Peoplemover, and that Starcade!
love the peoplemover! i was at disneyland in april of '81, '82, and '83. this brings back really fond memories for me. i remember digging the music then and i still love it now. it's got that whole "baa, ba-ba-ba, ba-baa" sixties-optimistic-about-the-future sound to it.
Ohhhh the feels!!! I literally imagined being young again sitting next to my family members on this attraction. Take me back!!!
Nice to back in time every once in a while.
I LOVED that 3D mural in CircleVision. It moved too. Miss it
How could Disney get rid of a iconic ride... Bring it back and throw in that 1960s vibe ..the people mover existed at a time when magic was allowed to happen.
I sure do miss the peoplemover I always ran for my own car so i could stretch out and enjoy, thanks for the amazing journey down memory lane
Imagine this redone with augmented reality headsets. Would be brilliant.
One of the golden videos on RUclips! Thank you for sharing!
One of my most favorite rides ever!
Thank you for posting this! My childhood friend and I use to laugh so hard at the music. So MUZAK and so 70s even though they kept using it well into its last days
I loved the People Mover!! The crowds would come if it was there. You have to remember back when it was operational there were less people in the park and visitors only came maybe once a year. Now look how crowded Tomorrowland is!! And yes due to Rocket Rods the whole track would have to be re-built.
I always wanted to see what Rocket Rods was all about, but it was never operational when I would visit.
So fun to relive!
This ride along with the skyway are two rides i wished Disney would have tried to save. I never got to experience these rides but still enjoy watching old videos of them.
Classic. Wonderful memories! One of my favorite attractions ever.
We just got back from our first trip to DL, we are a WDW family, and I was in awe at the deteriorating PM track. I love the TTA in DW and seeing such a sad looking track made me really want to ride it. Watching this video makes me believe that the PM, in its prime, was amazing! 😢
Linds, I had left a message SOMEPLACE during this Disney-music-listening craze, asking about the Peoplemover......we ALL loved that! Thanks for sending!
It used to be quite thrilling to be in open-air compartments while cars 🚗 boats 🚣♀️ monorail 🚝 , skyway buckets and submarines moved about you. It will not be back, too expensive to put emergency exits every 100’ or so and would look awful 😞. I got that straight from a Disney employee. I miss it too. Well done 👍🏻
I grew up in Orange County. Went to Disneyland a few times growing up. This is my favorite era of Disneyland I love and will never forget.
We loved this ride! We would get our snacks & kick back for a little time out. It was also the best place to watch the fireworks & then catch the monorail back to the hotel. Disney had a master transportation plan for around the park & between lands. That’s all gone now.
That's cool. I didn't know the Disneyland version went through Space Mountain too. I thought that was unique to the Magic Kingdom version.
It was modified to go through Space Mountain in 1977.
Very nicely done actually. Good audio quality, and I enjoyed the various shot angles from the same spot along the PM route. Thank you!
I love this, I just wish it could be full screen
This is way better than Floridas version! Bring back the peoplemover at D23 in August
Great video and soundtrack. Brings me back. Now DL is just too crowded. Still a great time. They NEED to bring this ride back.
Thats a cool video, thankyou for that, it brought back alot of memories from when I was there in 88 !!!! I remember the Tron and Star Tours section to this day, that is what stood out for me all those years ago as I celebrated my 10th birthday there !!!!
"Paging Mr Tom Morrow" This is a cool little nod to Flight to the Moon.
Great job! Fantastic and beautiful...very happy to see this on RUclips!
One minor nit-pick is that this audio clip is from the 1980's because Star Tours opened in 1987.
The original Peoplemover ride toured the person past Adventures in Inner Space and then included Space Mountain when that ride opened in May 1977.
We both agree that this is great - but I don't understand your nit-pick. This is not about the original people mover - but the 80's version, unless the video has been edited and re-posted since 3 months ago.
The 80's version only included Star Tours after 1987. Therefore, for most of the 80's the tour on PeopleMover was slightly different because StarTours was originally the Monsanto ride into Inner Space. As I wrote, it's a MINOR nit-pick.
Old is gold.
This was so great to see! I never experienced this or the skyway buckets, but love both systems. Monorail too. Thank you. :)
audio is the BEST!!
Thanks for the memories! This was all so familiar. As a teen, I spent a lot of time in Tomorrowland watching a band called Polo play at the Tomorrowland Terrace. I went on The PeopleMover as well as The Adventure Through Innerspace many more times than most people would because they never had long lines. I also regularly saw Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln regularly for the same reason. I still make my kids see Mr. Lincoln when we visit.
I miss this thing....
This was one of my favorite things to do at Disney land I really wish they would bring it back it would be a very big help to handle the crowds and be a great way to see and learn about what there is to do at Disney land.
Imagineers please bring this great attraction back
Love the video! I miss the Peoplemover!
Bring it back!
Wow, this video brings back memories
Love the video - thank you for posting it
(Added to narration later) “And in the early 21st century, you can come back and for a short time, experience the wonders of the failed Rocket Rods, which will replace the Peoplemover and ultimately render this track unusable for anything.”
Tron voice (O.S.): We'll see about that, User.
Female narrator: Huh?!
(REVEAL: THE PHYSICAL BODY OF THE EVIL COMPUTER VOICE. Looking similar to Sark from the Tron movie and Brainiac from Superman: The Animated Series, the figure GLOWERS at the female narrator.)
Tron voice: I have been unfairly evicted from my home domain for years. To see it abandoned, unusable, _DESTROYED..._ shatters my electronic heart. Take heed as to what I am about to say. If you somehow make another mortal folly, then you may not fare so well. Especially when _I'm_ round.
Female narrator: It's not about you! It's about the new, big thrills! And besides, you were way too cheesy, anyway.
Tron voice: Cheesy? Hardly. You see, Disneyland is a place people can go to experience childlike wonder in various different ways.
Female narrator: That's not what Eisner told us! Do you really not see a glamorous new Tomorrowland?
Tron voice: I _am_ Tomorrowland.
I miss this ride so much!
Wow... this brings back so many good memories! I remember that I especially loved the tron part! 😎👍
Hopefully they bring this ride back, along with the others like the sky tram thing and the submarines!
Thank you for giving me back my youth - Florida is awesome but not the same ❤
I love this. It took me back.
Great job thanks for the upload.
The ride the PeopleMover was at Disneyland in Anaheim, CA was from Sunday, July 2, 1967 until it broke down on Monday, August 21, 1995. Then it became Rocket Rods on Friday, May 22, 1998 and lasted through Monday, September 25, 2000.
The Tomorrowland's above ground platform has been standing but not operating since Tuesday, September 26, 2000.
After the completion of Star Wars Land in 2019, the Tomorrowland could remove the Rocket Rods Observatron from the pylon then they could remove all the old PeopleMover / Rocket Rod tracks between tearing down and rebuilding.
Around 2021-2023, as opposed to the Old PeopleMover with motorized vehicles (1967-1995) & Rocket Rods (1998-2000), in the same above ground platform, because of the possibility of people with wheelchair or mobility scooters, instead of a new ride with motorized tracks, we all know it could be the New PeopleMover without motorized tracks, it could be Heathrow Pod Tour, it could be iMover, it could be Boxcar Tour or it could be a new ride with normal speed that is more comfortable than ever before.
please bring this ride back. i loved the differenrt colored cars. It was a wonderful place to chill out.
8:59 - the start of the most violent 10 seconds of any ride at Disneyland. But I loved it!
What a great video!
Honestly they could bring back the People Mover. Would it close Tomorrowland for a couple of years? Yes, but honestly it’s time to give Tomorrowland a huge make over again.
I would give anything to go back in time and experience old Disneyland
Definitely miss this ride
Great video, thanks! I rode this as a kid, but I sure don't remember it!
Before Tron, it was the Superspeed Tunnel, with racing cars speeding by you. The Captain Eo pretty much sets the date stamp on this ride, about 1983-84, i guess. Everybody misses the original Peoplemover. They should rebuild it and connect both parks, with embarcable/reboarding stations. And get rid of two admissions., combine the oarks
The main video that this video sourced was from Mr. DIsneyfanman. His video was from 1990, & Star Tours opened in 1987. The Peoplemover cars were given their gray with the small color stripe paint job in 1987 when Star Tours opened. The Peoplemover & Skyway were my two favorite attractions at Disneyland. I was at Disneyland in 1994 for the Skyway's last day of operation, & 1993 respectively for the Motorboat Cruise!😥
Hello from Phoenix Arizona❗🔥
I wish it was back at Disneyland!
Thank you
The arcade at Space Mountain! 🥰
Wow! Thanks so so much for this! What memories! Probably 1983-84?
I was thinking 90-92.
Damn how much I miss my childhood, The 70s living in the San Gabriel Valley was great. Pasadena & Alhambra to be exact. Summers were F-ing awesome, dog days of Summer were the best, Ridding RTD (#266 bus line) down Rosemead BL to Seal Beach were the best, Then there's Disneyland, we would take turns having parents drop us off at 9am then picking us up at 12 midnight in the summer, best part is we were able to go with $20. and that was enough to get in, buy food AND get one of those super size suckers that took a week to eat. Although SoCal has changed so much, I have moved to Henderson NV for early retirement. But my heart & memories will always take me back to SoCal in the late 70.
I really miss this ride 😢 ...today the track & loading/unloading zone still sits above Tomorrowland as a reminder of a forgotten attraction
Awesome video. Music appears to be from Walt Disney World Peoplemover soundtrack, but overall a great blast from the past. Thanks for posting
This music was the soundtrack heard aboard Disneyland's PeopleMover attraction for many years. The spoken narration changed from time to time, but the music was always consistent.
There were speakers throughout Tomorrowland that played the music for ambience. In the late 80's, I sat by one of the speakers and tape recorded the whole thing. This music is different than that.
By "different" I mean only a couple movements are different. It's about 85% the same.
This footage took place between late 1987 and Monday, November 2, 1992.
Well done Sr! This used to be one of my favorite rides as a kid. Still bummed they took it out and I can't take my kids on it.
+Mike Sly There's always the one in Tomorrowland at WDW.
