Your Favorite Past DL Attraction

fireurgunz · Posted: Mon Dec 05, 2005 3:28 pm Post subject: Your Favorite Past DL Attraction

I was going to do a poll but here so many past attractions. I've never been on or ever heard of. I can tell you I have been on the Carousel of Progress, the PeopleMover, Rocket Rods, Rocket Jets, Skyway to Fantaysland/Tomorrowland, Submarine Voyage, Country Bear Jamboree, and Captain EO. Out of all of these I remember I loved the Submarine Voyage. Going in a Submarine was so cool to me at the age of 6 that I wanted to go on it again and again. There's so many other past attractions that sounds good but I'll never be able to go on it ever again. For example, America Sings sounded like it was a good ride. I heard it on UAB and its sounded really good. My mom said she loved it as a girl and as a teenager. Can any of give me some insite on this and other past attractions loved and forgotten.

I kinda miss the Indian Village...it just seemed natural to have cowboys AND Indians! I also miss the Rainbow Ridge Mine train...it was actually slow enough to see all the things going on in the "desert".

I really liked the Rocket Rods in Tomorrowland. I was able to visit DL on one of the good days when it was opened, and thought that it was great. We walked right on in the morning, bu by afternoon the line was over an hour wait. At least I have one ride.

It's a three way toss-up for me.

Submarine Voyage- One of my most vivid Disneyland memories is the last time I stood in line for that ride with my firends.

America Sings- I'd hit that attraction by myself- usually 'cause no one else wanted to go.

"Dangerous" Tom Sawyer Island- Remember Teeter-totter Rock & Carousel Rock? My mom used to take her shoes off and cool her feet in the river while we ran ourselves out. *sigh*

My first visit to Disneyland was back in the early 90's, and I'm not too sure what I remember from back then. I spent 1 day there and it was a blur (although we did walk through the parking lot where DCA is now, which is kinda cool).

Anyway, I have a recolection of The Submarine Ride, but I'm not sure if I'm confusing it with 20,000 Leagues from MK, but that would be the one I would miss most. And the Peoplemover.

Peoplemover. I honestly don't remember much of it, other than fuzzy memories of the Tron tunnel. But going by TTA at MK and how much more scenic the track is at DL, I would love to have it back.

Mine would be a toss up between the Peoplemover and the Submarine attractions!

However a really close runner up would have to be Adventures Through Inner Space.

The other day I tried to explaing to my kids how when I was little, you really thought that you shrunk! And that the little minature people you saw going through the microscope, were actually moving and waving,etc...

That was a great ride too!

I haven't been going to Disneyland long enough (my first trip was in 2001) to really appreciate everything that it had. But I do miss the Jolly Trolly.

Ancient attractions I very much would have liked to have gone on are the Mine Train, Rocket to the Moon and the Stagecoach. Oh yeah, and Ft. Wilderness *muttermumblegrumblegripe*

As an international nod, I wouldn't have minded being able to go on Space Mountain: From the Earth to the Moon.
