Looking at it now, I'm wondering why I cropped it to a "Panavision" ratio. Maybe there was some damage to the slide, I sure don't remember now. I wonder if they might have only run one train when crowds were low, in which case they might have stopped the passenger train in Frontierland, or the freight train at Main Street?

This is the access road behind the Jungle Cruise. The <i>Ripley</i> has just passed the turnout for the passing siding that allows another train to pass a train stopped at the Frontierland Depot, which is to our right. I find it interesting that the passenger train is pulling into Frontierland for a stop; in the beginning, before a third station at Fantasyland was built and a third locomotive and trainset were added to the roster, the <i>E.P. Ripley</i> and the passenger train normally only stopped at the Main Street Station and the <i>C.K./Holliday</i> and the freight train usually called only at Frontierland.Chuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01836717368846566211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-18974470800197937812007-04-18T08:45:00.000-07:002007-04-18T08:45:00.000-07:00The roadway is probably the same route taken by wa...The roadway is probably the same route taken by walking guests from Holidayland into the park itself.
