        Nice postcard collection. when you look at all of these images, there is truly no where else on this planet that looks like this. Especially the night shot of the Matterhorn with the Nuke Submarine below and Monorail overhead. ??what a strange juxtaposition. It is TRULY surreal.

            I know, I was too little to ever come into the park, I believe my first visit we rode the Skyway, than the next visit they we're gone =( but boy looking at the night shots make me wonder why they never kept it a classic!

              OK, just realized another thing I miss from Tomorrowland, the old Space Mountain escalator! Much better than the boring looooong walkway they have now!

                Tomorrowland would own if Disney never touched it (Except for refurbs and fixing up)

                        The old Tomorrowland, how alive it was back then. Hopefully they can get it back to the point where it feels like that again.
                        Stalking is when two people go for a long romantic walk together but only one of them knows about it.

                          Oh how I miss that stage. I will never forget in high school when I saw Tommy Tune -- or was it Adam Ant? I can't remember. Anyway it was the group that sang the song 867-5309. And I remember Disney security was all over the place like the President of the United States was there.

                          I don't remember too much of the early stuff. I only remember a brief scene in Carousel of Progress. My question is it looks like the second level of the carousel was open at that time. Anyonw knows what that was used for?

                              Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh Tommy Tutone......I was so little when they played there. Being a child of the 80s I miss Captian EO....what I miss even more...Videopolis!!! How me and my little sister thought we were the stuff going to Disneyland and Dancing our butts off at a "club". HAHAHAHAHAHA

                              Maybe thats why I enjoyed the DCA NYE thing this year, just the thought of loud music and dancing at disneyland made me happy!!! hahaha

                                  Wow. Tomorrowland had so much to do back then and it looked so busy and active. You notice in some shots you seee the Peoplemover, Monorail and Subs all moving about. A far cry from the empty tracks and neglected tomorrowland of present day.

                                      Now that's what I'm talking about!! It's obvious by looking at those pictures what TL should be! The movement, the excitement!!
                                      How do we get Disney to see this again and finally make them realize?!?!

                                      I too miss those escalators! And the SkyWay and PeopleMover!

                                        How I miss the Space escalator. I even forgot about the Captain EO sign right in front. Nice find.
