People Mover at Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom

[@alyssar3664]

went looking for a video of the TTA after watching one from this year (2024) and realizing how much the narration has changed! this was a nice window back to my childhood memories

[@ShelbyxPwns]

This ride is the ultimate, "Killin' time before my Fastpass wait is up," ride.

[@anthonywalters4765]

it's too bad that it was closed when I was waiting for my FastPass -.-

[@Zer0san]

When the thing would "stop temporarily," even as a kid, I would think sarcastically "oh no! I have to sit down more?!"

[@lewischoy134]

Shelby Taylo

[@larryaimeevignola6750]

This is going to sound sooo Dorky, but this is one of my favorite rides!

[@gabrielschannel9219]

Larry & Aimee Vignola mee tooo

[@scottbrown2536]

If rode this as a kid back in the early 70's, then all of these are favorites like the TIKI Birds, Carousal of Progress, etc!

[@houseof_mouse]

you're not alone

[@bermudagrass80]

it is one of the few rides in the shade.

[@brianbishop5322]

Embrace your inner dork, young padawan!

[@ReviewTheMagic]

I could ride this all day long...so relaxing!

[@houseof_mouse]

@Ilikebeaversandeaglesupyourass i mean, you're not wrong

[@Matthew-pz8ze]

One thing that's awesome about this ride is it goes inside other rides :3

[@susansackrison3139]

Matthew82850 it did😩

[@susansackrison3139]

I miss the People Mover. We got to ride in '95 our first time to Disneyland. It's no more😔

[@maddoxcox]

It is gone because of strict safety rules that was restricted in California except Roller Coasters, in which the peoplemover was changed to a roller coaster, and it failed.

[@46619TAB]

Always a favorite, the People Mover was my midday break for the feet at Magic Kingdom!

[@catlover4915]

+46619TAB Same here (I just got back from Disney World yesterday)! I think I went on it about 10-15 times! It's so relaxing *and* interesting at the same time! :)

[@raidlover6941]

46619TAB ur not wrong

[@pugeverdeen2798]

tbh this is my favorite ride in all of the parks

[@LemonGoofball]

Me too I wish I was there

[@iHeartBratayley]

Dana Davison lol same 😂

[@Jamestube8439]

This is the best ride ever!

[@ThatOneGuy0006]

As a sufferer of Aspergers and anxiety, this ride was always my go to place to cool down and collect myself as a kid! That, and the Main Street Cinema.

[@Avianca-rr3rf]

Doesn’t aspergers make you extraordinarily smart?

[@sportstrap4285]

Avianca2005 sometimes it can have that affect but I believe all Asbergers is is social autism. People with it often function the same mentally than people without it they just function different socially

[@ketas]

oh, there's yet another fellow asperger...

[@DianeLStyma]

We were just remembering that!!! Mom #1 remembers our kid would calm down here!

[@no-tq8iv]

Props to whoever came up with the brilliant and creative name 👏🏻

It stands for Walter Elias Disney thus WED way People Mover

[@pirateslifeb]

they need to bring this back to disneyland it would help so much!

[@RCCrawlerz209]

Agreed there, bub.

[@LemonGoofball]

Yeah it's a fun ride I want to be there now

[@jasonle520]

Apirateslifefors B unfortunately the tracks are too old and have rusted since it hasn’t been used. If they want to bring this back they will have to shut down tomorrow land

[@eb2k445]

jason le If I was an imagineer for Disney, that would be a risk I am willing to take!

[@Taijifufu]

I think the reason it was shut initially was because the foundation is now unsafe for such a ride. They unfortunately would not only have to close the land, but tear it down and build it anew.

[@dremily9577]

One time I was riding this and space mountain was closed, so when we went through there, all the lights were on It was so awesome ^~^

[@jellobear7566]

Nerdy_Emily its weird to see all those tracks closes to each other

[@1whetam1]

I got evacuated off of space mountain a month ago... pretty fun

[@freshcinnabonsmaam8822]

Nerdy_Emily same here! It was cool

[@MrBravesfann23]

Nerdy_Emily me too, looks pretty cool inside

[@Caylenmb]

Nerdy_Emily that happened to me to and it was crazzzzzyyyyy I wish it would happen again

[@happilydancingafter]

Such a relaxing ride. The view when you ride at night is STUNNING.

[@mrsmelissahodges]

This is a great ride for when it rains or when you have small children and need to relax for a little bit. When I was there in 08' I rode this thing like 5 times in a row with my friend's 2 year old while we waited for her parents and my hubby to ride Space Mountain. She loved it and it beat just waiting on a bench for them.

[@partyatmidnite5855]

The PeopleMover is the real MVP in Magic Kingdom. Always there for us when we need a relaxing break.

[@nataliafurtado6596]

This is my favorite ride cause it is where I can unwind for a bit and to see the Magic Kingdoms surroundings

[@carolmiller7633]

Thanks for the ride; great place to see the sights and people watch. A definite must do every time in THE PARK.

[@matthewleininger8079]

That was really cool getting to stop just in time to see the train go by!

[@TheLennyLegoShow]

It goes past those fascinated (yet weird in the best way possible) exhibits plus it goes inside Buzz Lightyear's ride and Space Mountain: Disney can even make a 5MPH moving car ride exciting.

[@Justin72walker]

I remember riding this as a kid and my Mom getting so scared. She thought we were about to go on the space mountain ride, and she was having none of that! Great times. This was my daughters most requested ride when she went last year.

[@thetimedshow]

+Justin Walker I thought the same thing when I was little! Thats funny

[@nataliejohnston102]

Rode this several times during our stay last year. It was awesome. We mainly rode at night (while waiting for wishes) and all the lights were beautiful. It was cool outside so the breeze was nice!

[@kevinconners2283]

When my kids were little, we'd always hop on this ride to just relax for a few minutes. It was perfect!

[@kparcparc4230]

I love this ride, gets you off your feet, relaxing and nice views. Thanks for posting.

[@12345annefrank]

It's so funny; Like RoseRedd said--not a lot to the ride but EVERYBODY in my WHOLE FAMILY LOVES IT! It's like you can't go to tomorrow land without going on the People mover (usually more than once) we love it! It's like a tomorrow land train--you ride on it and see all the scenery!!!

[@Vidikis360]

One of the most underrated rides at Disney. TTA ranks within my top 6 rides at Disney.

[@reneem354]

My husband and I enjoyed this one. Went on it several times in Magic Kingdom. :)

[@3BarGod]

The space mountain part would always freak me out lmao :D

[@nicolodeon05]

A great point where you can just get on if your feet hurt, but also a great ride in general too, especially going through the inside of space mountain is always fun.

[@kat6500]

this was my dads favorite ride funny right? but he always took us to disney growing up hed get killer deals and theyre my favorite memories.

[@jackxsparrowxluverx]

Got stuck on this when it went into Space Mount. it was really weird hearing the ride going on around you. I love the people mover I was able to get some awesome pictures while on it

[@JoshBrinson]

One of my favorites! I also like the Carousel of Progress. I'd like to see a nighttime TTA ride-through. Tomorrowland is neat at night.

[@joannestealey4482]

Josh Brinson there is a KZbin vid of that

[@jeninaslicer352]

Can’t wait until next month! I can’t wait to ride this and the monorail! I heard thirds rides are a great way to relax and rest your feet for a little while.

[@rvbfan21a]

I love this one. It's the perfect way to get away from the crowds sometimes lol

[@KoubuPilot]

@acpowers13 The Disneyland version had the Goodyear tires spun by individual motors. The WDW twist to the PeopleMover is LIMs (linear induction motors) where the magnets push and pull the trains. The 3rd generation PeopleMover installed in Houston Intercontinental Airport also uses LIMs, but the cars and stations are different the DL/WDW models.

[@4evamileyfan]

I really liked this ride. :) It gave me a nice, refreshing, cool breeze as we rode around.

[@Ozone6136]

Am I the only one who thought the escalator ramp thingy was the People Mover?

[@steventeixeira9176]

No

[@TimeNerd]

Lol funny

[@clxxiii]

No

[@purpledragon1945]

Technically it was a people mover just not The people mover

[@kermitthefrog9500]

PeopleMover: DON'T TRY TO SWITCH SIDES AT THE BEGINNING

[@zoem7142]

Why

[@kermitthefrog9500]

Zoe M I tried it, nearly got thrown off the ride.

[@NoName-vz7qk]

Apparently someone tried this and ended up killed.

[@nicolodeon05]

Yandere-Chan I tried it before and it was scary, next time I had to, and i dived into the seat 😂

[@martinallysonsenn6108]

Clorox Bleach this MK not DL

[@netholor]

Happy to find a video like this exists and delighted that it has over 300k views XD

[@pickpocket7226]

I love the Peoplemover!

[@joellegillespie85]

I remember when I went in this it kept stopping. But I thought it was cool how you could see parts of space mountain throughout it

[@scoutfletcher]

I love how Disney can even make a mid Afternoon Break time fun

[@liamdonohoe1988]

At least it stop, so we could catch a glance of the Train passing by.

[@zackvanek6943]

Love this ride puts a smile on my face every time

[@chancemorrison5356]

I liked the ride except for how long the dark part was

[@TheDisneylover71]

This brigns back memories of how I always wave to all the random people while on that ride, I am extremely shy and I find it amazing how a place like Disney world can break me out of being shy

[@MillerMeteor74]

This didn't exist the last time I was there. So this is really cool to see. Thanks.

[@noaht-s8126]

memories of my childhood holidays, every time i go it fells like going home

[@StangQuest94]

This ride is great! It's a nice change of pace when you need a break from the sun. If you're good enough you can sneak a quick power nap on it! Although at times we call this ride the "Infamous People Stopper" LOL

[@BlackValleyRequiem]

You know, this was surprisingly an awesome ride. I was tired and wanted to sit, it was relaxing, informative and very cute. Rode it two more times that day(once because it ws raining, lol)

[@geoffreystill1038]

This ride is in a small category I deem the best ride in WDW. Don't believe me? The category includes The Monorail (Only if you have the Park Hopper) The WDW Train The TTA (People Mover) Now what makes these three the best rides? 1) Killing Time for Fast Pass 2) It'll keep the kids entertained while the parents and older teens can rest their feet 3) People Watching 4) It gives a decent rest from the "overwhelmingness" of Disney to the less experienced guests 5) Continuously Moving Lines!

[@MandiijayCrazedlife]

This ride is a good ride at the end of the day when your feet hurt and you need a break and to sit, there is never any wait to get on these it seems

[@bearmanormedia]

My favorite ride. Relaxing, and never a line.

[@tbohrer01]

Way back in the late 1980s I was lucky to see Space Mountain with the lights on as it was refurbished from this ride. That was way cool!

[@tooniemama6959]

Awesome!! Such fun and gives you a whole other perspective & Disney experience!

[@ENTERTAINMENT35]

Omg!!!! Listen to the music in the background during 6:35-7:07 and somewhat during the stop of the ride. It's If You Had Wings music!! Talk about a throwback to an oldie and a goodie

[@sharpproductions]

I have no idea... maybe they stop all the trains when they have to pause the ones in the station to load a wheelchair or something.

[@stephenmatthews9182]

I love the fact thatthe soundtrack playing at different points are "Now is the time" formerly used in the Carousell of Progress and thetitle theme to the defunct ride "If you had wings"

[@jking6155]

The ride was the centerpoint of the park when designed by walt disney. it never stops moving, it always runs. (Unless a wheelchair has to board) It was a perfect design. it was supposed to go park wide thru other hubs. it was going to be a full transit system, but walt disney died before he could carry out his dream.

[@Jamestube8439]

Tomorrow Land is a great place to go at this park, however going there in the afternoon seems to have the best effect on me, never before 1 P.M. will I go here otherwise it doesn't seem right, but at night this ride is amazing.

[@mattrost2574]

I like how the soundtrack includes "Now is the Time", one of the retired songs from GE's "Carousel of Progress".

[@daviddebergh254]

The music hits you right in the feels....ahhh childhood

[@sharpproductions]

@MandMsmashupTV We wait just like everyone else, not too long for this though!

[@anthonybarnes2355]

I been there , rode it , and liked it !

[@MrMario4574]

At the beginning the non voice addeon of the second Carusol of progress song "now is the time now the best of your life"

[@LoriArvio]

Longest ride ever but I love it 😂❤

[@williambornstein3664]

Brings back memories.

[@KraftyWeave]

My brother said "hey! Who turned off the lights?!" When we went through the space mountain tunnel

[@margaretgarnto6272]

That Space Mountain tunnel on the People Mover was so dark, so DAH-ARK and scaaaaaryyyyy. Good thing somebody turned the night vision on while they were in the tunnel.

[@angeliegarcia1825]

ive been to disney 19309874 times and i've never gotten to ride this, def doing it next time!

[@thebrummierailenthusiasts5329]

This is magnificent

[@JoseanCintron]

Once I went to Walt Disney World's Magic Kingdom and it was raining so hard that we had to re-enter this ride like 4 times XD hahaha good memories ♥

[@freizeitparksimulationen4387]

its a theme from carousel of progress the best time in your life 0:46?

[@TheCrazyCoasterKid]

It was designed by Walt Disney. It is many things. It is a ride, a showcase of Tomorrowland and the Magic Kingdom, a place to rest, etc. It was supposed to be a full transit system that brought people to different lands but Walt died before that could happen. Right now it is all the things I listed before plus it was the center of Tomorrowland and it looks cool around the top of the land. It is also unique as it is a moving transit system that never stops unless there is someone in a wheelchair.

[@InsaneCoasterPOVS]

Inter inside the space mountain part is so cool

[@GoaWay4Sanity]

I miss this😞 also Delta’s DreamFlight!

[@thesouthernsistersmaster1969]

did u see the train at 7:26 the was The Walter E. Disney the #142 of the walt disney world railroad

[@SandraLovesSun]

I miss this ride. It is so soothing and fun.

[@gabrielschannel9219]

Sandra it’s still in Walt Disney but if you are in California then it has been closed

[@firstnamesecondname5341]

Wow 😲 amazing 😉 video 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@ErynnSamara]

this is my family's favorite ride, we could rde this at least 100 times every time we go to disney

[@MrNickharp]

Hilarious!The ride op can't even get his speech out with the feedback 😋so funny. He gives up

[@powerplayer84]

i love this little ride...nice way to get off yur feet for a little bit,relax after having a meal.

[@kespeth2]

"think of me as your commuter computer" lol a classic

[@TheYassi1]

Wish we still had this in Disneyland. Nice video!

[@PunkyPink85]

Love this ride even though it's pretty pointless. But it's nice if you're hot and tired and want a cool breeze. :D

[@TheAirbubble123]

aswell my friend when i was little i would ride this over and over again

[@acpowers13]

@aceattack52 i believe there are tires on the track itself that turn to propel the cars

[@TheCrazymonkey0421]

Rode this so many times before I could ride space mountain

[@veronikaw9455]

Sooo funny !! I was same way ..my family would be on line for space mtn and I rode this over and over til they were done 🤣🤣

[@lirr408]

The park is not very crowded. I like this ride. I remember it stalling a few times. I did not mind. Actually enjoyed it.

[@iilikeitlikethatii]

I'm obsessed with this vehicle. I want to know how it works and how it can be used outside of the parks

[@kikenna]

iilikeitlikethatii It's probably safe to say it works in the same way a roller coaster would work

[@iilikeitlikethatii]

Emily i think it uses magnets to move

[@themadhatter1184]

iilikeitlikethatii Same here, it would be so easy to get around town with this system. Just think about it.......never stops, fully electric, and just fast enough that you could zip around town with no problem. It would be awesome!!

[@ddragon8154]

It was (I believe) designed as a form of passenger transport like you suggest. I understand one U.S. airport uses/used it as well (Don't know which, but seem to recall it's one named after Bush Sr) though don't know if it still does or not. :-)

[@Jimenopolix]

This ride is fun... but what is up with the dark rooms and halls? Couldn't they put some lights in there? Like, lights that circle around the riders when they enter dark rooms? Wouldn't it make the Tomorrowland experience much cooler when you enter a dark room and there are futuristic lights circling around us? Or maybe a black light effect with black light colors?

[@LittleSwift8]

The people mover goes into rides like space mountain which is why it's dark.

[@Jimenopolix]

+LittleSwift8 Yeah, but what about when it's in an area that you can't see in Space Mountain?

[@SM_FELLA]

This is one ride Disneyland should have never got rid of. My favorite part of the old ride was traveling through the world of Tron.

[@heatherlaunn385]

When I went on it this Summer it stopped in that dark corridor part!

[@austinklein1172]

Funny my Mom and me want on this ride because aunt said to. and I think we on it about 10 times throughout your visit

[@heids418]

This is my favorite ride at Disney😊

[@resablue]

I wish they would make this ride have two stations and go all the way to the other side of the park.

[@nrdesign1991]

It's almost surreal seeing this typical early 90's futuristic styling in the beginning and end of the ride, only to transition to its original 1970's concrete structure and back again.

[@dlopezdlo11]

i wish Disneyland Anaheim would bring this ride back so totally miss it you dont need high top rides to attract people

[@SkullCandyWadey]

it wouldn't be The People Mover if it didn't get stuck :')

[@thenataliemarie12]

i think that space mountain was being repaired or something when i went through it because it was all let up. it was cool because i could see the track but it took away some of the magic.

[@shannon4407]

I love when the ride stops in space mountain because I'm too scared to ride it myself but I like seeing others ride it

[@dmcewen772]

Awesome Ride

[@meghannbaynon3590]

Been on this ride and I didn't enjoy it, yet I just spent 10 minutes watching the ride. I feel like I have maybe hit a low point in life... ;-) Thanks for sharing. I had to watch this because I was just there a few weeks a go and it was closed and I wanted to go on it because I forgot what the ride was like ;-)
