Tomorrowland from Train, April 1962


We've been enjoying a leisurely ride on the Disneyland & Santa Fe Railroad, and after a brief stop in Tomorrowland (not many people got on or off here), the train is continuing on its way towards the Grand Canyon Diorama. No Primeval World yet!

I originally thought that the Autopia might be down for refurbishment in this picture, but upon closer inspection, you can see a few motor maniacs. Guess there are just a lot of cars that are not in use on this April day. There is a tiny speck at the tip-top of the Matterhorn, that's one of the intrepid mountain climbers!

Looks like there was a little rain and everything is a little wet. I think the spot on the Matterhorn is the spot where the giant star used to be placed and the take off scaffolding for Tinkerbell.

matterhorn, you could be right...but I seem to remember that the lot that this slide was from had a slightly closer view in which you could clearly see the climber (and one other climber still on the side of the mountain). Wish I had scanned it too!
