Disneyland Train Stations Part 1

I will be doing a few installments on the different train stations in Disneyland so naturally we begin with the Main Street station! These photos were taken over three visits to the Park.
This is something you don't want to rush, trust me.

Let's begin with a few night shots...


OK, so it's not the train station but you can see the ironwork!


When I took this, I noticed that the window shades were up so I had to investigate.


But first, let's examine the luggage cart.


No line the the train...


Now, back to those windows!




They've got some pretty darn cool items in there!



Now I'm back to checking out the exterior of the building.


 

On a return trip we explore the interior of the building.




Anything new in the window?


Took several shots of this and couldn't get around that reflective glare. I should have gone back later in the day but...I forgot!


Interesting stuff inside this place! I never looked at these before.
Oh look at the dufus reflected in the glass!



A close-up (Hope this works!)


Goodness! I hope they didn't weigh you before getting on the train!





I dig these vintage fans!





Looking out the window...







Well boys and girls, that's it for now. Next time, Tomorrowland Station!

Oh, this is and promises to be fun. Excellent subject.
I too could just gaze into the nooks and crannies of Main Street Station for hours.
Loved that first picture of the benches. Many times I have sat there and just soaked in the wonder and special occurrence that is Main Street USA.

Nice bunch of photos! You captured lots of details in Main Street Station that I've never noticed before.

Awesome post indeed, and love the kind of "mundane"/you are there shots of the train station. Great photos!

And apologies for the random unsolicited plug, heh, but merely I always greatly enjoy your blog and looking through the recent entries. I just started a new blog myself, focusing on old Disneyland photos and paper goods, plus other themed attractions and general weirdness. If you fancy taking a look, much appreciated...sorry again for blatant self promotion heh, and thanks in advance!

Disneyland Trash Cans

Yes Folks, trash cans! Do you know where these two beauties are? You'll find them as soon as you come through the gates at Disneyland. This should be easy to figure out - Adventureland! How about these? Hmmm??? New Orleans Square! Here's a trick question: Which two lands share the same style of trash can??? You can find these two in Frontierland. Now we're in Fantasyland. Still in Fantasyland but wait!!! The area around It's A Small World has it's very own trash can theme! Tomorrowland!!! OK all you hot shots... WHERE is this MYSTERY trash can???? Do these look familiar? They should. Critter Country has the same theme as Frontierland. I know what you're thinking...you're thinking that I've already posted these and I'm trying to trick you. HA! I have not already posted these! If you look closely, these differ slightly from the trash cans in New Orleans Square. THESE are in the area next to the Haunted ...

Getting back into the swing of things...

It's been a rough couple of days... I came back to work only to be told that I will no longer have a job as of February 1st! Ya, it was a big shocker to me, too. That being said, everything else is back to "normal" and I will begin posting on a regular basis again. Below is a little video I put together taken on my last night in Florida. There is a wonderful little town called Ocala, which I dearly love. I am providing links to two sites, one here and one here , so you can have a little information about the place. OOPS! I just realized that I had posted some of the previous video earlier in the week. Oh well.. at least this one contains new footage, LOL. Peter said I tired him how SO MUCH that I can't go back to Florida for at least two years. hee hee hee

Upside down Christmas Trees?

Image
We interrupt our Disneyland visit to bring you a few pics from Tom's Farms . Ever heard of it? Unless you live in Southern California, probably not. It's a neato keen place and I really dig it. I had not been there in 10 years so it was high time I paid them a visit. They have tons of outdoor seating and it's a great place to people watch. I had a great bacon cheeseburger and then walked off my lunch by window shopping. A life sized Santa! (And he looks a bit creepy the way he's standing there. "Hey baby.." Ever seen an upside down Christmas tree? Me either! I decided to take pictures of all the trees... Look! Another upside down Christmas tree. Here's a twist - HALF of an upside down Christmas tree hung on the wall! I kinda like it. These are ginormous ornaments hanging from the ceiling. I'm already planning a return trip to Tom's Farms. I've always wanted a sleigh bed. Ain't he cute??? There is a big can...
