	PeopleMover - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The PeopleMover (July 2, 1967–August 21, 1995)(officially the PeopleMover Thru the World of Tron, from 1982-1995) was an attraction in Tomorrowland at Disneyland in Anaheim, California, and remains open at the Magic Kingdom in Lake Buena Vista, Florida as Tomorrowland Transit Authority.

		At present these windows look down upon a scene of unintelligible nonsense, which fits in nicely with the rest of the new Tomorrowland.
