The home that replaced the Disney Carolwood home is up for sale. No pics of the tunnel that apparently still exists. Is Yensid valley now a tennis court?

New home movie footage of Walt

http://www.cartoonbrew.com/disney/exclu ... 80461.html

Amid posted a new video of Walt and Ward at the home of Dick Jackson. Great moments capturing Walt's first time operating a scale locomotive, trying it out forwards and reverse.

Re: Mark VII Monorail Billboards?!

Not a big fan either, but:

1. Its temporary
2. Its a lot better than the full train wraps the Mark VI's have to endure.

Re: more casey jr merchandise?

Since Casey Jr. has never had an appropriate attraction poster made, I'd love to see one finally produced.
