We revisit Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln with the Frederick Douglass pre-show that was introduced in 2023. This recording adds the full pre-show in front of the previously recording of the actual show. The Opera House has some pretty loud AC so I please excuse any hum from the air vents.Additionally, the brief background music of the lobby is included before the pre-show. It's faint, but I believe it's worth including.Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln audio recorded on 8/27/21 at 3:19PM.Pre-Show recorded on 3/20/23--------------------Interact:Email - podcast@offharborandmain.comTwitter - @Park_SensoryInstagram - @offharborYouTube - Off Harbor & MainFacebook - Off Harbor & Main

The stages had audioanimatronic humans and household appliances showing how appliances and electronics advanced about every 20 years from the turn of the century to the "modern" era of the early 1960s. The audience stopped in front of each stage while the characters joked with each other, described life at the time in history, and demonstrated their kitchen. This ride originated at the 1964 New York World's Fair and was installed at Disneyland after the fair closed. In 1974, Carousel of Progress was moved to Florida's Walt Disney World, and the show building was used for America Sings and Innoventions.The PeopleMovera train ride that ran along an elevated trackFirst built in 1961A great way to relax and enjoy a unique view of TomorrowlandClosed in 1995Rocket RodsPeople mover closed in 1995 as part of a Tomorrowland overhaulRepurposed trackDragster-style thrill attraction - more thrilling than PMOverhead view of TLQuick launchSlowed down at every turn - they lost GM sponsor/budget - didn’t build in banked turns on the flat PM trackSpeed up/slow downNot thrilling enough/Too thrillingLong wait timesMechanical issuesInfrastructure wasn’t altered to accommodate the quick/slow - stress on track & vehiclesAfter weeks went down for 3 months to try to fixStill constantly breaking downTrack and structure was breaking down, making it unsafe - cracks, broken concrete - lawsuitClosed again in 2000 to reopen Spring 2001Didn’t reopen - announced permanent closureSad skeleton in the middle of TLVideopolis (1985–1995): A nighttime dance club targeted at young adults. Videopolis featured television monitors playing modern music videos and also hosted live musical acts. It also featured its very own snack bar, "Yumz". Videopolis was converted into an amphitheatre in 1990 and was renamed Fantasyland Theatre in 1995.Mike Fink Keel Boats (1956–1994, 1996–1997): The Mike Fink Keel Boats were based on two episodes of the Davy Crockett miniseries which aired on the Disneyland TV show in 1955 -- "Davy Crockett's Keel Boat Race" (Nov 16) and "Davy Crockett and the River Pirates" (December 14). The ride was named after Mike Fink, the "King of the River" who lost the keel boat race. The two 38-foot boats, the Gullywhumper and the Bertha Mae, were the actual props that had been used in making the TV shows a few months earlier.The boats were free-floating and traveled around Tom Sawyer Island Riders would sit on benches either inside the cabin or on the roof of the cabin.1997, the Disneyland Gullywhumper boat began to rock side to side. It capsized, dumping a full boatload of passengers into the Rivers of America, leaving several with minor injuries. The boat was removed from the waters for inspection and neither the Gullywhumper nor the Bertha Mae returned for the next operating season. The Bertha Mae was put up on Disney's eBay Auction Site and was sold for $15,000 to Richard Kraft, and was later featured in a scene from Kraft's documentary Finding Kraftland. It was billed as an unseaworthy craft.In 2003, the Gullywhumper returned to the Rivers of America as a prop and is moored on Tom Sawyer Island, where it is visible from the Mark Twain Riverboat, the Sailing Ship Columbia, and the Explorer Canoes.Swiss Family Treehouse (1962–1999): Treehouse based on the film Swiss Family Robinson. Rethemed as Tarzan's Treehouse in 1999 and still open under that name.Jolly Trolley (1993–2003): The Jolly Trolley was a Trolley providing transportation from one end of Toontown to the other. Closed due to crowded walkways presenting major safety hazards, meaning the trolleys could only operate on days with sparse crowds. The Jolly Trolley's track is still present in the main walkway of Toontown, and one car stands stationary in the middle of Toontown. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Limited Time Magic - Long Lost Friends Week April 8th - 14th Disney Legend, Harrison “Buzz” Price to Receive Main St. Window - In July 1953, Walt hosted a party and discussed the Disneyland project with architects Charles Luckman, Welton Becket, and William Pereira. When the subject of where the park should go came up, Luckman suggested that Walt talk with Harrison “Buzz” Price. Price worked for the Stanford Research Institute (SRI) and had recently finished two site suitability studies for major corporations. This was the type of expertise that Walt needed. The next morning, Walt had Nate Winecoff call Price and put SRI under contract. Over his long career, Buzz Price worked on an estimated three thousand economic feasibility studies. Most of those were in the leisure-recreation-attraction field. Price would go on to advise Walt and Roy on more than 150 projects.
