Tomorrowland Transit
Authority
[Disney Vacation Planner]
| At A Glance |
Leisurely ride around and
through Tomorrowland, on what used to be known as the WED-Way
People mover, which stretches for around a mile through the
park. |
The Tomorrowland Transit Authority (Formerly the WED-Way PeopleMover)
is boarded close to the Astro Orbiter, and features a number of
5-car trains which travel along almost a mile of track at up to
10 miles per hour powered by LIMs (Linear Induction Motors) in
a ride that lasts approximately 10 minutes.
The ride passes alongside, or in some cases through, most of
the attractions in Tomorrowland, including Mickey's Star Traders
and Space Mountain along with a number of otherwise hidden dioramas
some of which depict parts of Walt's dream for the EPCOT resort.
Directly above the main loading/unloading area for the Tomorrowland
Transit Authority is the Astro Orbiters ride.
