ruins of old disney rides

Of course the chickens from the big WOM street scene are in the queue for Barnstormer.

They were there, might not survive the FLE project.

Just to add to the google maps thing, I went to EPCOT randomly on google maps and it had test track listed and WoM

a whole bunch of world of motion remains, like the dragon.... which ended up in disneyland!

This is the Fort Wilderness sign I was referring to. It's still at the Fort, but not visible to Guests.

I'm sure you could find it with Google Maps.

That would've been my post as well. Yep, he's still sitting up there in the dark.

Sweet, so I'm not crazy, :lol:. Thank you for the confirmation...

Does anyone know where the old Skyway cabins ended up? I always dreamed of having one in my backyard sometime lol

1 is hanging in the Imagineering building backstage at Epcot and another 3 are used as "picnic table" type of shelters outside in the same area.

There were some in the Kissimmee warehouse, just haven't found those photos yet.

I was very fortunate to get a tour of the warehouse a while back and they allowed photography. Here are a few more photos:

Since these were taken the monorails were scrapped. I think the starjet was the one mouse surplus got, but not sure. I had more photos but can't find them, there was so much to see there I didn't get everything.

that was luck, and proves they don't throw anything away... for like 10 years anyway.

Nice to see that DAK dead knight (that lost a fight with the fire breathing dragon) surviving the scrap heap...

Are the cabins that are outside visible on Bing aerial imagery?

[DarthGrady]

Very cool, and yet very sad too.

 

[Prince Ali]

Wow ! I've passed those so many times without knowing. So cool.

The trees in the area cover any of it that you expect to see on a satellite image.

Any idea what happened to the silver monorail in one of the pics?? I know they sold the red monorail

 

[s8film40]

Car 1 of the red monorail was saved as well as the consoles from the other three remaining cabs, a few doors, and one of the horns. Some of the consoles were sold on eBay at the same time the car of red was. Everything else was scrapped.


In this link you can see Car 1 of red being loaded up at the warehouse.
