It was on this first day of 1959 that Fantasyland Autopia first opened its highways to Disneyland guests. To steer us in the right direction for this topic, we turned to the man who was responsible for creating the attraction vehicles, Disney Legend Bob Gurr, who told us, “From Disneyland’s opening day, the Autopia in Tomorrowland was wildly popular. A couple years later, the Junior Autopia was added as a quick capacity addition and specially configured for younger (shorter) guests. To achieve even greater capacity, the master plan for 1959 encompassed the Monorail, Submarine Voyage, the Matterhorn, and now two Autopias with two tracks each, and with new Autopia Mark V cars added to the existing mix of Autopia Mark IV models.” Thanks, Bob! And to all of you, we hope you have a happy and healthy New Year—and may all your dreams stay on track.
