Non-exhaustive list of things that are revealed by the partially visible 1961 floor plan and wall-to-wall sketches: >Moley was positioned directly in front of riders immediately beyond the doors to the main room of Toad Hall, in the center of the track just before the U-turn. >Ratty was...

This view of the one-way street is particularly amazing to me, as it's a realistic idea of what it would have looked like to actually be in this part of the ride. This angle really puts you in there, with the buildings on both sides, the motorcycle cop impending in the distance, and the traffic...

The legend has graced us with a massive update: Not only has he made tons of absolutely stunning progress, but he even included two new interior photos in the video, in addition to having multiple REAL preliminary wall-to-wall sketches from the 1961 updates incorporated into the model! You...

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/371997283_Ekphrasis_in_Disneyland_The_Alice_in_Wonderland_Ride_1958 This is the article about the ride referenced in the video. I had absolutely no idea this existed until now, but it's a pretty interesting and well-rounded analysis of the ride. However...

Stefano strikes back, this time with hyper-obscure MTWR audio trivia, which is apparently one of my favorite things of all time.

Judging by his inclusion of the 1961 breakaway flats in the warehouse scene, I would say he's probably doing exactly what you're describing here, especially because the un-upgraded 1955 version was a bit sparse compared to the more realized 1961 version. The audio is something I've been...

@Rich T Any thoughts on the newly revealed pre-1983 Toad replica by Don Carson? My initial post about it is at the end of page 29, and there are a bunch of pictures from it at the top of this new page. I believe he's taking a few creative liberties with his portrayals of the super obscure...

Here are a bunch of additional images of the project which I somehow missed previously. Absolutely superior artwork by him, as always. His attention to detail is just immaculate; Notice how he's taking cues from the old ride's art direction when "filling in the blanks" for obscure areas that...

Massive news: Don Carson, the creator of the 3D recreation of the original Alice ride, is now doing pre-1983 Toad! I've already offered to help him out by providing photos and anecdotes, and I hope all of the information compiled in this thread will be able to mold this project into a truly...

My Snow White questions from last year, followed by Stefano's recently posted answers: There are a lot of interesting details in this new reply, including some more evidence toward the audio recording having a section missing from it.

Color version of one of the black and white Toad photos from The "E" Ticket, retrieved from Parkendium: This isn't super interesting as it doesn't show the true ultraviolet colorization of the scene, but we can at least see that the falling halberd was a bright red color, presumably to make it...

The notion that there was some elusive Ratty/Moley dialogue that I'll presumably never be able to hear is going to haunt me forever.

Interesting new comment on my YouTube upload of the 1970s Mr. Toad audio. This is actually the same person who posted that in-depth comment on the Snow White video some time ago. I'll reply tomorrow, but right now I'm extravagantly tired.

This isn't anything major, but I just found some dark ride interior shots on Jason Schultz's Parkendium archive that I had never seen before: https://mediagraph.io/parkendium/explore For some reason, I'm unable to locate the GorillasDon'tBlog post that this shot below was taken from, even...
