On one of our trips out to Disneyland it was during the years that they had the attraction poster pins, and I have most of the Tomorrowland ones, mostly the attractions which are no more :(Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09895614694411482044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-86022924501042239112013-10-14T10:58:25.246-07:002013-10-14T10:58:25.246-07:00The 70's parking lot view had its charms... bu...The 70's parking lot view had its charms... but I agree it wasn't nearly as cool a scene as it was in decades prior.

All other photos beyond that date have no attraction posters. That's how I came up with Spring 1967.<br /><br />Check out the "MAIN STREET TRAIN STATION: 1966–1967" section from this link.<br /><br />http://davelandweb.com/dlrr/index2.html<br /><br /><br />It's also interesting that Tomorrowland '67 opened shortly after and all the attraction posters that were a part of the Avenue of Flags were removed too. It must've been a clean sweep that year in which they removed those attraction posters from both locations.<br /><br />After that, all I remember were attraction posters in the Disneyland entrance tunnels and Carnation Plaza Gardens. Of course there's still the vintage Tomorrowland attraction posters at Redd Rockett's Pizza Port.K.

And I think you might be right about the posters... what I need to do is look for photos of the station from '67 onward to see if I can narrow it down even further!Major Pepperidgehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09843598326995116014noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-57986816211556443772013-10-14T00:19:16.925-07:002013-10-14T00:19:16.925-07:00After looking at various online dated photos, I...After looking at various online dated photos, I'm going to say the attractions posters were removed from the fence in the Spring of 1967.K.
