Hey Brickey! What a great video! Once my dad and I were riding with Steve when people walking weren’t getting out of the way despite the horn. My dad said, “just run ‘em over.” Steve gave my dad a serious look and said, “too much paperwork.” It was the perfect thing to say to my dad, who has since passed away, and the memory makes me smile.
Disney please give a raise or a promotion to the CM that made the decision to run the Main Street Vehicles at night. While so many much entertainment/experiences are being cut back this experience has been expanded and added even more feels to late night Disneyland. Great tribute! Thanks for all the hard work.
When ever you do these types of videos, I always think how, this is your gift. You do these so well. I mean really well. I can't stress how great these videos are. The narrative is both informative and perfectly toned. Just love it!!!
Those vehicles are so important to the “real little town” suspension of disbelief when walking Main Street in the morning. It’s also such a luxury to feel like you have the time to take a cruise when you’re not rushing to crush
Speaking of vehicles during construction it was not uncommon for Walt to borrow an autopia car and drive it around the park. Walt on a serious note served in WW1 in the medical unit with the worst duty ever, driving an ambulance. Can you imagine what he saw. So perhaps he could erase the memory with the joy of driving.
This tribute to the Main Street vehicles was so beautiful and eloquent and truly brought tears to my eyes. I love that you highlighted my favorite cast member. Steve creates magic every where he goes and riding with him is a highlight to my Disney Day. ❤ Thanks again for your hard work and dedication.
It was my honor and privilege to have been hand picked to be Main Street Operations at Walt Disney World in the mid 1980s. The original core values were part of the experience, and everything mattered. Part of what we did included Main Street Vehicles, and I got to drive them all. Not everyone liked driving the Omnibus due to its size, and we were required to give a live narrative announcement spiel along the way, so the Omnibus was most often assigned to me. The Omnibus was clearly my favorite, as it commanded Main Street! Decades later, I was so blessed to take 2 of the Omnibuses home with me! They are part of my fondest treasures; I have enjoyed driving them around the area, and doing Christmas Parades, a long eoth Church Christmas Caroling events! The Main Street Vehicles brought life to Main Street at the Magic Kingdom, and still operate today, although their service has been drastically cut back at WDW in Florida, to the point that I have to rock the boat to get them out on the Street in the later afternoon or early evening. Guests today are missing much, often not realizing just how special the Main Street Vehicles experience actually is. ua-cam.com/video/Ed2DOjeIWM4/v-deo.htmlsi=pzScOFLvMu-Xzzc7
I have no intention to ever visit Disneyland and will never go to Disney World again but I really enjoy your videos detailing their history. You do a masterful job of providing depth to what appears a superficial experience.
Amen. I've been lucky enough to visit both, back when it was safe for families and especially children. Now it is so demented and perverted that I find it hard to believe people still actually visit.
I was in my 60's when I finally got to see Disneyland. My lifelong friend and I went to make a week out of the lakeland sun N fun Universal and Disney. We went 3 years in a row. Great memories.
I used to work Main St. Attractions, which used to be the Steam Train Conductors and the Main St. Vehicles. I drove at some point both '03s, Both Omnibusses and the Fire Truck. Even got to be in a few parades driving the vehicles. Very fun times.
Since these vehicles are over 60 years old, I wouldn't be surprised if certain driveline items have been upgraded such as a more modern engine and even power steering. These are things the average attendee won't see but makes sense in the long run.
Beautiful nostalgia, it reminds me of everything Disney upheld before it became infected, God bless Walt and his true dream for the families around the world.
I'm not crying, you're crying. This was beautiful edited and narrated. I have no recollection of ever riding a Main Street vehicle but I intend to the next time I'm able to visit. If I see Steve I will definitely thank him for his service.
Hi Brickey… Delightful information!… It’s my tradition to start every visit to Disneyland by taking a ride to the castle on the first vehicle in front of the train station!!…. I didn’t know before that Walt and Mickey’s riding in the fire truck was their last photo together. ..Wow!… That was very lucky timing….
When I was a kid we had horses at a stable close to Disneyland. At that stable was an old retired Clydesdale. Every afternoon they would open the gate and the horse would walk the same path, always returning to his corral. Never sped up just the same old clipity clapitty. One afternoon the porter placed me and my friend upon the beasts back we sat crisscross applesauce upon its back as it meandered around. Well until it saw the oats go in the troft. Then it was game on and we went sliding off and onto the ground.
Was there in 1965 when the whole Mary Poppins fad was hot. The Main Street vehicles were amazing and you could ride them with an “A” ticket! Disneyland was pure magic!
@@cagal6437 Thanks for your response! There’s lots of people who collect Disney memorabilia who would probably pay dearly for unused tickets from that era! Disneyland will probably tell you the are expired! Lol!
I watch all your videos, Mark. I see quality in each of them. But the people have spoken and they really dig your park history deep dives. These videos require a lot of time and creativity, thanks for your hard work!
Brickey, this video is amazing. Belongs on the History Channel! THANK YOU. Can we please continue to get historical videos like this with old footage you can find? I can express how much nostalgia and happiness this brought me.
What a great video Bricky! I really enjoyed it. And, despite my decades of knowledge about Disneyland I never knew about the Omnibus going all the way back to what was the Mickey Mouse Circus area!
Thank you for this video, I literally wondered where the old times vehicles came from and assumed they were custom made with modern tech. Funny thing is that the “modern tech” of these recreations are now much closer in time to the original vehicles than to today.
the disney of that era is a testimony to what business, specifically corporate business, should be. Walt Disney is the original good boss. I feel that we have a lot to learn from what he taught us
This video is so heartwarming. I am filled with such joy watching it. The Main Street vehicles have always been a must-do item on my itinerary every time I have visited the park. I have said this many times, and even told Bob Gurr this once when were having lunch together at a convention we were both guests at, but I never really feel like I'm truly at Disneyland until I've ridden on one of the Main Street vehicles. Thank you so very much for this video, and for all the videos you produce. Blessing to you, Brickey!
This was a great video, perfect script and interesting information. The only note I have is that at some points of the voiceover you didn’t leave enough time between sections, you left only a second or so when 3-5 seconds would have been better.
Wow the yellow car and I have the same birthday 🎂 . OK same day not year lol I was born 24 years later lol. You learn something new everyday and with every video. Once again Brickey you gave me good vibes. ❤❤
Touching tribute showing Walt's last Disneyland photo op at the end. It is so sad that he never saw the Magic Kingdom, Epcot, or anything else completed. (But, he also didn't see his beloved parks become too expensive for the average family, either.)
I remember so many Saturday nights sitting around the television with my parents watching The Wonderful World of Disney when we all still have black and white TVs! It's funny though, because I remember it in color! A child's mind can be magic!
I enjoy when I was at the park recently and I was fortunate to get a picture in the driver seat of the fire truck right in front of the castle but with out Mickey. It really felt how Walt would have seen his own park for the last time in 1966. And also I have meet Bob Gurr the man himself. Thanks Bob for creative of the Main Street Vehicles.
I really like the ad of the story of the driver. Have a nice personal touch as well. Many people don’t know that cast members work there for decades and they do it because they love it.
I love stuff like this, the fact that they’ve kept them going all this time is just so cool. While at the time they were modern vehicles modeled after vintage vehicles, they are now vintage vehicles modeled after antique vehicles. Also this video itself is just so good, the pacing, the shots, and the story. Fantastic to watch and listen to.
Bro what kind of a team do you have helping you do these videos? Please let whom ever helps you put these masterpieces together. we appreciate your effort, and thank you for your time well spent. The information you give is amazing. God Bless. Great , great and great
Had to take a little break, but catching up on your videos, and this new format is excellent. Great VO, Brickey. Great storytelling and pacing. Love it!
The red and yellow ones look like their designs were based on the Renault cars. The busses look to be based on the early Model T. And the fire engine you said the inspirations.
I miss the main street vehicles at WDW. I'm not sure when they removed them, but they were really fun for me as a kid. It wasn't just Magic Kingdom that had them. EPCOT Center had a neat double decker bus, too.
I am one of the 3rd shift crews who actually cleans the Mainstreet vehicles every night. There's a great team who does the mechanics on the vehicles also. That's one of my goals is to have the vehicles shiny & clean before heading out on Mainstreet in the early morning.
Thanks a lot for this video, my friend. You have done such a wonderful job giving us the details of the Disney vehicles. I am a past president of the Model A Restorers Club, and I have always wondered how these vehicles were created. Thanks for your video that fills in the missing blanks. I have always enjoyed Disney cartoons since I saw my first ones in the 1940's during the war.
This was an excellent video. One of my favorite you have done even though I love them all. The Main Street vehicles are so much fun and definitely underrated. Going to be my sense of wonder when we visit in August as my favorite, the railroad, will be closed.
Given how the majority of car trips in America are less than 5 miles each way, I think it would actually be much more practical to have these smaller, slower, but significantly more aesthetically pleasing modes of transportation to get around. Think of how much more enjoyable ones day would be to see more of these delightful things in one's town, and how much fun it would be to drive them!
the US at one point had a chance to adopt 'KEI' cars like Japan, which are smaller, lighter, cheaper vehicles designed to fit into a comparable price as a 'every day' style of motorbike. Sadly, the US and the rest of the west pivoted towards giant road-boats after compact cars started losing their appeal. In all honesty though, a revival of streetcars would be a huge boon to all urban areas. No need to hop into a car when a streetcar passes every 5-10 mins, just grab a passing trolly for any short trip. It's a crime that streetcars were ripped out at the behest of the auto industry and have never made a comeback.
I knew when I was 4 that the old timey car ride at Disney World were just golf carts made to resemble brass era cars. Still, taking a trip around the course with my grandfather, who learned to drive in a Brass Era car, is one of my favorite memories.
The pride that the drivers and maintenance mechanics have in these vehicles is clearly evident every time you see them. There are no scratches or marks, no gum on the seats, and they are ALWAYS sparkling clean. The brass polish used on them over the decades must be in the thousands of gallons.

Now I know! Thanks for all your incredible videos!
Seeing this video has made me think a lot. I don't like Disney, but I like Walt, because he had passion and a explosive imagination. It's just sad what hes created is just twisted.
Adore the vehicles, thanks so much for this one Brickey! So much nostalgia mixed with new info, and the highlight for Steve of course is lovely. Gotta say, every driver I’ve ever met is an honor to the job and uniform. One of my favorite things about the vehicles, aside from the actual experience, the drivers, and the always fun company of guests, is that they’re so easy to get onto, with almost no line ever :) How’s that possible? We usually take at least one or two per day when we visit, it’s such a special & restful pleasure. Yes, more folks should try it, but maybe not too many more ;) Lol, it feels like that will never be a problem.
Through my visits to Disneyland beginning in 1955, My first memory was in 1962 of riding the street car. We would usually ride from the flag pole circle to the front of Sleeping Beauty Castle. Main Street transportation doesn't run that often as the crowds won't safely permit it.
13:58 oh i'm crying... describing without showing i knew what photo was coming, but now hearing the story, and finding Walt himself goaded the photographer to make the iconic on the abandoned space on negative ... i fas me crying as much as listening to Goldsboro's "Honey (I Miss You)"
Walt had the right idea as a child. The fire crew were not to be feared, but rather cheered. For they are the people who are the champions we call upon when emergencies happen. From fire, to accidents, to injuries. Those brave souls risk a lot and should receive people's admiration, even to go as far as to replicate such bravery.
I highly encourage people to ride the upper level of the Omnibus because that unique view of the buildings that was mentioned. It is surprisingly different.
Salute to Steve the Firetruck Driver of four decades. He is the best of all of us.
What a thing to think you are about to lose your job about, only to get to your office and be told "make it so"
1973 to 2024? 5 Decades?

More like this Brickey please!!! This was a home run. My new favorite! Thank you ❤
I was in my 60's when I finally got to see Disneyland. My lifelong friend and I went to make a week out of the lakeland sun N fun Universal and Disney. We went 3 years in a row. Great memories.

Cool video, and great information. How fun to be the trolley or firetruck driver at Disneyland.
A magical moment Walt Disney is a respected icon a touching documentary 🎉
Walt Disney is indeed a respected icon but the Disney Corporation is a complete sewer these days
I really love the Main Street vehicles.
This is a great video!!!!!!!
Look how well dressed everyone was back in the 50s! 😃 imagine going in a suit and tie today!

The pride that the drivers and maintenance mechanics have in these vehicles is clearly evident every time you see them. There are no scratches or marks, no gum on the seats, and they are ALWAYS sparkling clean. The brass polish used on them over the decades must be in the thousands of gallons.

Very entertaining and fun to watch. Thanks for posting this.
Seeing this video has made me think a lot.
I don't like Disney, but I like Walt, because he had passion and a explosive imagination. It's just sad what hes created is just twisted.
The "vintage" vehicles are/were propane powered, which greatly reduces pollution.
Love the history videos ❤
Love this!
This is classic Brickey, enhancing the magic for generations.
I rode one of the old red fire engines, it was awesome! 2:24 that was my driver, he took my picture in the drivers seat!!!!!
Adore the vehicles, thanks so much for this one Brickey! So much nostalgia mixed with new info, and the highlight for Steve of course is lovely.

Where's the Disney 8-lane interstate and a dying strip mall? That would depict modern times more accurately.

This is one of my favorite videos that you have made!!!
Great video. Thanks for doing them! Keep them coming.
Great video! Always look forward to the next one. Thank you
Walt had the right idea as a child. The fire crew were not to be feared, but rather cheered. For they are the people who are the champions we call upon when emergencies happen. From fire, to accidents, to injuries. Those brave souls risk a lot and should receive people's admiration, even to go as far as to replicate such bravery.
I have to say, I love this style of video better for your channel. The b-roll and planned out narration work very well for you.
Steve is LEGEND! Great coverage once again, Brickey! Love You, Everyone! Aloha and Magic from Hawaii Island
