The Skyway is heading towards its final destination, so our photographer fired off several shots as fast as he could. Looking slightly to the left, we see the Autopia, and the Disneyland Railroad sitting at modest Tomorrowland Station. Beneath us you can see the Viewliner track encircling the lake, and unless my eyes deceive me, you can see a tiny, itty-bitty sliver of the Viewliner in the lower right corner. Arg! It's the only view we get in this entire lot.
Panning quickly to our right, there's the Space Bar, a single Astro Jet, and the Administration Building backstage. Does that structure still stand?
Mr. Wiggins, loyal reader of this blog, used his time and Photoshop expertise to try to "de-blur" the closeup view of the Flight Circle featuring Coxpilot (and friends). I think he did a fine job! Thanks, Mr. Wiggins!
Hey--- There's the top of the 'Sands Motel' sign directly above the last pyramid shape on the Space Bar sign, in the second to last picture.
ReplyDeleteThe Sands was one of the first Harbor Blvd motels and it's site is now the home to the Camelot Inn (former Park Inn).
Great shots all...Too bad the Viewliner escaped!
as really cool these are; what is amazing is outside the berm. just a capture of a world no more.
ReplyDeleteThanks for applying your amazing de-bluring ray gun to that picture, Professor Wiggins! Much better.
ReplyDeleteThanks Mr. Wiggins!
ReplyDeleteGosh the Skyway/snack bar. Looks I could walk over there, get a snack (including a genuine Coke without corn syrup!) and head on past to do my laundry. hehe
Great posts major. Thanks KG & Chiana, and thanks to major for the incredible scans. One of these days a slide will be discovered where we can see the whites of Coxpilot's eyes! :D
ReplyDeletethese are great! the Space Bar looks so inviting in the bright sunshine :) and i also love seeing the world beyond
