Holy cow, I can't believe it's been that long! It just boggles my mind that there hasn't been a PeopleMover there in over 13 years!

They do have a cool monorail with no A/C.

Ah, I remember the days when you could see a Monorail and a PeopleMover traveling side-by-side. Just imagine how cool it would look with the Mark VIIs and brand-new designed PeopleMovers nowadays.
Oh, they've fixed that. It's just silent through that part now.

I've always wanted to see that too. I'd like to see more than just a ride though. It could be a mode of transportation with stations at the entrance, Future World West , Future World East and possibly near the bridge leading into World Showcase.

The original proposal for WestCot (the park that eventually came into existence as California Adventure) had something exactly like this, information about the different countries would be displayed between stops.

In the original concept for CCore and the park, they wanted to have a TTA. In fact, they even built an area for it in the buildings.

Where at and where would it have gone? Track layout?

Second floor of CCore and looking down on the exhibits.

But I mean would it move people somewhere or just circle around the second floor?
It would make sense to me if it was a loop between CC East and west using a bridge. I just can't picture it.

Idk if TTA needs a revamp of there soundtrack (the guys who does the "NOW APPROACHING...... has a PRO voice!), but more couldn't hurt to add a lil somethin somethin. However I think a lot of people like the fact that it's just a chill relax ride instead of someone always talking your ear off with information you already know. I know I took it just to put my legs up and go into all the tomorrowland rides in 5 minutes on new years eve (which is otherwise IMPOSSIBLE), not for an information session. But at the same time I can see and respect the other viewpoint
YES epcot needs a TTA!!!! But which attractions would it go into is the question? Best case/impossible scenario, starting behind spaceship earth, traveling over to living seas (pass by nemo), the land (living with the land), flying under/above/around the monerail through inoventions east n west (just bringing you so you can see the open showcases), taking you to test track (so you can get a glimpse of the tests being done), going outside to see the high speed run, and then jetting over to mission space to see the load area (b/c thats about all you can see, plus that spinning space station is kinda cool, and you can check how long the lines are lol), ending up back behind spaceship earth (I woulda added in Ellens energy adventure, you could check out the dinos and stuff, but isnt wonders still down?). watcha all think?

Seems like a good idea but tough and expensive to do after the fact. I'm still wondering what the original plan was. I can't picture how it would have gone but I am sure Martin or someone on here knows. :veryconfu

Thanks, I can add that to my list of interesting things I didn't know. Very cool, just wish they had of built it.
Management back then was so short sighted and always doing things on the cheap. It was the walmart mentality creeping in. No wait........
