The PeopleMover originally opened in Disneyland California in 1967, and then here in Walt Disney World Florida in 1975. Guests board small trains that ride an elevated track for a grand circle tour of tomorrowland. It was originally thought of as a serious prototype of intercity transportation and even appeared on the maps for Walt’s plans of his Experimental Prototype Community of Tomorrow EPCOT.

The California attraction closed in 1995 for various reasons but most assumed for cost cutting measures due to high maintenance expense. The track and infrastructure still remain as an unfortunate reminder to guests of what used to be. The version here in Walt Disney World is still running, but is under a slightly different name the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover.

To commemorate this fan favorite attraction friend and fellow collector Jim McNally has going with designer Don Cade to issue a variation on Don’s original PeopleMover elongated coin design. The design shows off the original people mover marquee signage but is altered a bit, and now states Elongated Collectors. It also includes the famous Paging Mr. Morrow, Mr. Tom Morrow.

On the reverse side of this variation design, now includes information for Jim’s online store zzzCoins.com. His online store has a large selection of current and retired elongated coins from Walt Disney World, Disneyland and many other locations from around the United States and even Canada.
