0:01 Welcome everyone. I'm here today at
0:03 Disneyland celebrating the 60th
0:05 anniversary, the Diamond Celebration of
0:07 Disneyland. And I wanted to focus on
0:09 something that holds a very special
0:11 place in my heart. I'm talking about the
0:13 transportation aspect of Disneyland.
0:16 There are lots of ways to get around the
0:18 Disneyland Resort. Whether it trams
0:21 going from the parking lot to the park
0:24 or whether it is the Montreal going
0:26 around the property or even the train
0:29 which you see off in the background
0:31 which takes you in a circular pattern
0:33 all around. Today we are going to talk
0:35 about Main Street vehicles here on Main
0:38 Street USA. And I'm here with Jay who's
0:41 over there and he is super excited about
0:43 riding all of the Main Street vehicles
0:45 today. Are you ready for this?
0:47 I'm ready. Join us,
0:49 shall you?
1:10 Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls,
1:13 good morning and welcome to Disneyland,
1:16 the place where dreams come true. Now,
1:19 before we get started, let me show you
1:21 something inside here. We're talking
1:23 about Main Street vehicles. Let's see
1:24 the original Main Street vehicle. Come
1:26 on. Underneath Walt Disney's apartment
1:29 inside the fire station is the original
1:32 transportation mainstream vehicle.
1:35 Horsedrawn carriage would take guests
1:37 through the park. This is actually a
1:40 relic. This does not run anymore. It's
1:42 now stuck inside this building. But a
1:44 lot of people do not realize that this
1:46 is a piece of Disneyland history.
1:56 Now, you must be patient, Jay, because
1:56 in a few moments, all of the main street
1:58 vehicles are going to make their
2:00 entrance
2:07 right through those doors. Are you being
2:07 patient, Jay? Anticipation is killing me
2:10 right now. The anticipations
2:27 You know what time it is, Jay? Time for
2:28 the first Main Street vehicle of the
2:30 day. The Omni Bus. Let's sit up top.
2:33 Let's go.
2:34 Over on the left hand side, the
2:35 Disneyland Fire Department right above
2:37 the fire station. Walt Disney's family
2:40 apartment. Where Walt and his family
2:42 would stay back in the 50s and the 60s.
2:45 White light being observed here. And as
2:48 we go down Main Street, Main Street,
2:50 USA, you may notice our gas lamp. Now,
2:53 we have quite a few. They're very
2:54 popular at the turn of the century. But
2:56 Mr. Edison made that new electric light.
3:04 Now that we have departed the one-way
3:04 trip on the omnibus to the castle, Jay,
3:07 it is now time for us to take the
3:08 horsedrawn carriage back down Main
3:11 Street. Let's go back down. Let's do it.
3:34 Oh, I see how it is. It's a race.
3:34 Obviously, he's winning.
3:38 We've just completed one full loop up
3:40 and back. Now, it's time to go back to
3:42 the castle. Okay, let's ride.
3:45 You know, I haven't seen Olaf for a
3:48 while and I I ran into him at the
3:50 supermarket
3:51 and I said, "Oh, what are you doing
3:53 here?" And he was leaning over a big
3:54 little bushel of your parents. He goes,
3:56 "Well, today I'm just picking my nose.
4:03 We're back at the castle." Jay,
4:03 have you ever ridden the red car before?
4:06 That was my first time.
4:07 My first time in the red car, too.
4:09 Normally, the red car is not running.
4:10 It's just the yellow car. Another first
4:12 for Disney.
4:12 A first for Jay. A first for me.
4:15 Awesome. Now, I don't want to be the one
4:17 to make all the suggestions, Jay, but I
4:19 see the yellow car coming in. What do
4:20 you think about taking the yellow car
4:22 back down Main Street?
4:23 I think we should take the yellow car
4:24 down Main Street. That's a great idea. I
4:26 like the way you think. What are you
4:28 doing?
4:29 This whole year is the 60th birthday.
4:30 Going to celebrate. We're celebrating by
4:32 riding all the
4:34 main street vehicles today.
4:44 Dick Van Dyke was in my car a month ago
4:44 with his family.
4:45 This car?
4:45 Yes. He sat right there.
4:47 Where he sat right here?
4:48 Right where you are,
4:49 Jay. Dick Van Dyke sat right there. Oh,
4:50 where I am. I
4:52 where you were.
4:52 Right there. Okay. So, I should get back
4:53 in here then. So, I'm sitting right
4:55 where Dick Van Djk sat in the main
4:57 street.
4:57 This was This one was built in 1956.
5:01 I
5:01 have the best seat in the house.
5:13 It's the good life, Jay. It's the good
5:13 life.
5:21 A lot of people when they enter the
5:21 gates at Disneyland, they run straight
5:23 to their favorite ride. And a lot of
5:25 people neglect to actually notice that
5:27 the vehicles are actually fully open.
5:29 You can ride any of the main street
5:31 vehicles.
5:38 Now, we've ridden on the top of the
5:38 Omnibus, but I'm thinking maybe I need
5:41 to sit in the front seat of the Omnibus
5:43 and actually get a inside view, a
5:47 driver's point of view inside the
5:49 Omnibus. Let's see if I can sit in the
5:51 front seat. Aren't you coming with me?
5:52 Well, I think I will. I saved you a
5:54 seat, buddy.
5:55 I'm taking it.
5:56 My name is Vern. I hope you enjoy the
5:58 ride. And with two of our magic,
6:02 we're on our way. Anyway, he loves
6:04 candy.
6:05 Me,
6:06 they make it fresh right there at the
6:09 candy box.
6:10 Yeah, look through the window. Watch
6:12 them make it over the right hand side.
6:19 Mr. Disney was asking one time, "Hey,
6:19 with all your fame and fortune, what
6:21 would you like to have?" Walt said,
6:22 "Well, he'd really like to be 1 in
6:25 tall." Well, I got to tell you, Walt,
6:27 the statue is lifesize except for one
6:30 thing. It is 1 in tall. Look where we
6:33 are once again at the castle. Which
6:34 means we got to go back down Main
6:36 Street. I say let's ride the fire truck.
6:38 Jay, let's ride the fire truck. Let's do
6:41 this. Ring the bell back there if you
6:44 want. Let them know we're coming. Find
6:45 an annoying.
6:45 Ring the bell, Jay.
6:46 Based on a 1916
6:49 fire truck.
6:52 It's a little complicated. No computer.
6:54 There you go.
6:55 There you go, Jay. You did it.
6:56 There's a learning curve.
6:57 Success.
6:59 Do it. Let him know we're coming, Jay.
7:01 We're coming.
7:13 What year did this start running?
7:13 58.
7:13 1958.
7:15 The horserawn fire.
7:22 What do you say, Jay? I say we take a
7:22 different horserawn carriage back
7:24 towards the castle. This time we get to
7:26 ride with Lucky. Are you feeling lucky?
7:28 I believe I am. Are you feeling lucky?
7:31 Do you feel lucky, punk? Well, do you
8:14 Well, I think we've done it, Jay. We
8:14 have ridden every one of the Main Street
8:16 vehicles today. If you guys come out to
8:18 the park, do not run straight to the
8:20 rides. Do not neglect or do not ignore
8:23 one of the most fantastic things here on
8:25 Main Street, the Main Street vehicles.
8:27 Am I right? Some of the best views you
8:28 get sitting in these vehicles, running
8:30 up and down Main Street. So, listen to
8:32 Jay. Listen to me. Soak in the beauty of
8:36 the main street vehicles is what you're
8:37 basically saying pretty much. I'm
8:38 speaking for you. I'm putting words in
8:40 your mouth. I appreciate it. Thanks for

9:27 And does this vehicle run?
9:27 It does run
9:28 on what? Corn dogs. Corn dog fuel.
9:31 You run on corn dog fuel, Jay.
9:33 Well said. Let me show you something in
9:34 here. Perfect. Come on.
