Al Lutz has this Editors Note up at Miceage today, and it's a good one!

DCA's latest Blue Sky Cellar exhibit opens Friday. Nearly the entire room is devoted to one thing now; Buena Vista Street. Since Cars Land needs no extra hype, WDI and TDA both felt they should showcase what is proving to be the fan favorite of DCA's extreme makeover.

Material from D23 Expo, plus new visuals of interiors and detailing, will present a thorough look at the new entry area from Cast Member uniforms to trolley paint schemes. Three new Attraction Posters debut as well; Soarin', Tower of Terror, and the Trolley.

A corner is newly devoted to additions at the Disneyland Hotel and Aulani, which hints at what's to become of the Cellar exhibits beyond next year.

This may be the last Blue Sky Cellar exhibit before the new DCA premieres next year. I'm looking forward to seeing the Buena Vista Street stuff, and the new Attraction Posters!

Yes, those new DCA posters look great!

I think the Trolley one is my favorite, but I like them all.

Wouldn't it be neat if they had the full series of new DCA Attraction Posters out on the front fences flanking the Pan Pacific entry turnstiles next summer when DCA opens?!? In the 1950's and 60's, they used to do a similar thing on the wrought-iron fences below the train station at Disneyland, but by the 1970's they had moved them to inside the tunnel entrances only.

I would love to see an effect like this flanking each side of the Pan Pacific entry with these gorgeous DCA posters.

The cool kids at Westcoaster.net have some high quality photos this week of the Buena Vista Street exhibit that opened at the Blue Sky Cellar a few weeks ago.

One display board in the exhibit showcases the Red Car Trolley. There will be two different paint schemes for the trolleys, reflecting the fact that often various types of cars and paintjobs were in use throughout the system at any one time.

The trolley route will have three main stops; the Main Entry courtyard, Hollywood Blvd., and then just past the Tower of Terror.
