Been there, done that --twice. While it was quite interesting to see the track layout and to see how high the actual hill went, I must say I enjoy the special effects and the darkness.🤭
i got to see it....very weird and not that much fun cause you see all the stuff that makes it fun in the dark. When the lights are on...its more like a factory.
3:10 little piece of trivia, directly in front of ya, you see that red rocketship model on top of "Thirst Rangers". That red rocketship model is actually made from the model used ship from Flight of the Navigator (1986).
Nice video, I've never seen the Space Mountain tracks when on the ride. We always enjoy riding the PeopleMover. If our feet are tired, and we want to cool off a bit, it's our go to ride.
@@mouse-gears-tv the ride on this video do you remember what year this ride opened cos I don't think it was around at the year I was at Disneyland in Florida back in 1994.
Originaly from Illinois and always wanted to move here and been down here since 2009 and i love living just 20 mins from the parks ❤️❤️❤️ great video!!
Congrats! I would love to move, but we are Canadian and are not permitted. I can only visit. Love hearing about people living out their dreams! Good for you!
Oh my gosh, I'll never forget the first time I rode the WEDway People Mover at the Magic Kingdom. It was in 1977, 2 years after it opened. I was 14 and a group from my junior high went on a field trip to WDW (one of the perks of living 45 minutes away.) I was too afraid to go on Space Mountain with the rest of the group*, so I opted for the peoplemover. I was nice and relaxed...until I heard the announcer say "Now entering Space Mountain" and I freaked out! I thought the peoplemover was just going to merge into the Space Mountain ride, and of course, there's no seat belts or safety bars to hold you in. Once we got inside the ride, I quickly realized it was not going to turn into an unexpected roller coaster ride, so I relaxed. But it really got my heart going for a minute! Lol
*the year before, I'd gone to Busch Gardens with my family and decided to ride the Python, which had just opened. It was the first roller coaster in the park, and the first double corkscrew coaster I'd ever heard of. I went on it by myself, and when the attendant said to push on the safety bar to make sure it was locked in place, I discovered mine was not. I tried to get the attention of one of the employees, but it was too late. All I could think to do was tightly wrap my purse strap around my hand so that if I fell off the ride when it went upside down, my identification would stay with me so my family would know what happened to me. I really thought I was going to die, but of course, centrifugal force kept me in my seat. But after that experience, I wasn't keen on trying roller coasters again. I eventually overcame my fear and did try Space Mountain. It was fun but turned out to be pretty tame.
Yes. Replacing those tires cost too much so they decided to drop it at some point. I was a bit surprised they didn't upgrade it to induction version. Probably cost too much before some genius came up with the Rocket-Rod. Now those tracks are damaged so it can't be used again.
I would actually like to see it not return to tomorrow avenue but rather run over south harbor boulevard to a new hotel and parking from the esplanade.
@@robertnove528 Yep, some genius thought the Rocket-Rod was a great idea which ruined those tracks. The main reason the original people mover was shut down is due to lack of sponsorship to maintain the constant replacements of those Goodyear tires. The one at DisneyWorld uses induction which is a better design.
Just the most relaxing coaster ride I've ever seen. Wish I could ride it. Would prob go on it at least ten times before a day ended at the park if I ever went to Disneyland. It's a great "starter" coaster to take young kids on. Also, it would be nice if it could be made into a "haunted" ride around Halloween, though. It looks so relaxing to me. 👍😻😍👍
As much as Disneyland was supposed to be about change, I too, miss the Peoplemover. I have two autistic grandsons, who cannot enjoy attractions that are faced-paced, touting loud and flashy special effects and high speeds. The Peoplemover was a ride where not only tired parents and children could get a little rest, but those who were older, or handicapped could enjoy a pleasant experience, as well. The Rocket Rods did wreck the tracks beyond refurbishing, and Disney will never bring the attraction back, it is something those of us who were fortune to experience will remember for the rest of our days
One of my favorite rides. I have to ride during the day and at night when Tomorrowland is lit up. I ran out of time on my last visit and missed it. I was very sad 😢
I wish they would bring back the "NOW APPROACHING" Guy. No reason to change the narrator as nothing had changed and it made the ride nostalgic. Sick of Disney ruining the nostalgia of the parks.

This was just one of those nice relaxing rides
One of my favorite rides at Magic Kingdom!
The next station is Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress.
Riding Space Mountain with the lights on is every Disney Nerd's dream.😃

Always loved this ride. I can't wait to take my wife and kids on it in December

Yep, it's sad to see it repurposed like that but at least it's not destroyed.
The best video out there!!! Thank you so much ❤
You're so welcome! Thanks for watching!
Nice video, I've never seen the Space Mountain tracks when on the ride. We always enjoy riding the PeopleMover. If our feet are tired, and we want to cool off a bit, it's our go to ride.
We hit the Hall of Presidents Friday. Absolutely saved us. We were STRUGGLING. Heat and our 3rd park in 3 days. 30 minutes in AC saved us.
And you got to enjoy going through the Lightcycle grid of TRON!!!!
I like that the service lights are on bc I can _see_ the Space Mountain tracks
Wow. Hasn’t changed in 50 years!
Now approaching Tomorrowland Speedway and Tron Lightcycle Run.
i went on Space Mountain in 1994 i did'nt know it was a roller coaster untill i found out during the ride at the time the lights were off.
It's a classic and a favorite. Thanks for watching!
@@mouse-gears-tv the ride on this video do you remember what year this ride opened cos I don't think it was around at the year I was at Disneyland in Florida back in 1994.
The PeopleMover has been around since 1975 at WDW. It was also at Disneyland for many years as well.
It's one of the main reasons we went to Disney.
That was awesome.. have a great day
Thanks! You too!
Great shot! The Space Mountain support structure is so cool, wish we got to see it more often lol
Thanks for your kind comment. It was a rare moment that we had to share!
I miss the people mover at Disneyland...glad to see Walt Disney World still has it
soon it will be demolish by Ron DeSantis and everything elts here to make way for the bigger truck stop like you see in Iowa 80.
Originaly from Illinois and always wanted to move here and been down here since 2009 and i love living just 20 mins from the parks ❤️❤️❤️ great video!!
Thanks! We were surprised when we saw the lights were on and had to capture it!
Congrats! I would love to move, but we are Canadian and are not permitted. I can only visit. Love hearing about people living out their dreams! Good for you!
this is awesome!
Thanks so much!
I will always enjoy this ride, but I personally enjoy the older narration and dialogue more
Great job filming this. You were steady but knew when to change views slightly. Very immersive!
Thank you very much!
It's a good thing it has a walkway next to the track, that way you can walk to safety when it breaks down. 😂
‘Paging Mr. Morrow. Mr. Tom Morrow. …”. This will last forever.
So true!

Thanks for sharing your experiences and thanks for watching!
Oh wow so that's what the Space Mountain part is supposed to look like. When I went it was just a 5 minute ride stoppage of complete darkness lol
The original Disneyland one ran on rubber tires spaced at intervals, not linear induction. Is this part of why they’re not bringing it back?
Yes. Replacing those tires cost too much so they decided to drop it at some point. I was a bit surprised they didn't upgrade it to induction version. Probably cost too much before some genius came up with the Rocket-Rod. Now those tracks are damaged so it can't be used again.
Holdup did they change the narration??
The next station is Tomorrowland Urban Planning and Star Traders, transfer to green and red lines.
i really wish they'd bring it back at Disneyland. the only reason not to is because they're being cheap
We agree! The Disneyland Peoplemover was one of our all time favorites. Thanks for watching!
I would actually like to see it not return to tomorrow avenue but rather run over south harbor boulevard to a new hotel and parking from the esplanade.
That’s not why. The track is condemned. The people mover will never return
They chose to build a Disney park overseas rather than give tommorowland at Disneyland the renovation it deserved.
@@robertnove528 Yep, some genius thought the Rocket-Rod was a great idea which ruined those tracks.

Now approaching Monsters Inc. Laugh Floor.
5:45 They enter Space Mountain

Does anyone know why we can't see the loading bay for space mtn anymore?
Is space mountain down for maintenance with lights on once a day?
We only saw it down once during the week. Thanks for watching!
This is Starport 7-5.
What day and time was it taken?
We don't recall the exact date as it was over a year ago. It was taken in the early morning. Thanks for watching!
@@mouse-gears-tv yeah. If it was the 19th, I might have been there. Mainly say that because when i went at rope drop space was closed.
Hmm.. that might be the same day!
@@mouse-gears-tv was this also around early morning for resort guests?
Yes, it was!
The chipping paint at 1:52 - Wow, standards have really lowered in the parks - I wonder if the rest of the park has the same distressed conditions.
Love this ride! The park, though, looks appallingly empty. Wonder what time of day this video was taken.
It was early- around 9:30am. Thanks for watching!
They need to change the voices back to the people who did it before and the script.
I wish they would stop changing the narration. It gets worse every time. I miss the old version with the robotic voice announcing the stops
One of my favorite rides. I have to ride during the day and at night when Tomorrowland is lit up. I ran out of time on my last visit and missed it. I was very sad 😢
Now approaching pollution speedway
This will be our last stop. Have a wonderful Trans Gender Day.
Backrooms entityes wow😂
Would have been real nice if you would have recorded all around so we can see what you see instead of looking straight..
I wish they would bring back the "NOW APPROACHING" Guy. No reason to change the narrator as nothing had changed and it made the ride nostalgic. Sick of Disney ruining the nostalgia of the parks.
Crowd level is amazingly low!!
Open the 0
I don’t remember the people mover loading area to be that ugly red color for some reason
Oh God I am in Hell. 😢
