MY RATING – ★★★★☆

The Main Street Vehicles are a charming addition to Main Street USA. Their presence alone really makes this land feel like a genuine street, and the cars bring history alive within Disneyland. Don’t overlook this attraction as you rush through the park; even if you don’t have time to take a ride, stop and appreciate the Main Street Vehicles!

VISITING TIPS

Your best chance of seeing the vehicles in action is during the morning, before parades start and big crowds file into the park. If you want a ride, hop on just before lunch to get a scenic view of Disneyland’s most nostalgic land. Bear in mind that the vehicles are extremely crowded during the summer and holidays, so if you’re visiting the park during these times, you’re better off appreciate the vehicles from afar.

TRIVIA

Walt Disney was known to drive the fire engine around the park in the morning, before the gates opened to the public.

Each park has a different set of turn-of-the-century vehicles for guests to admire and ride in. If you’re visiting a new park, don’t overlook this attraction, as the cars are likely different from those you’re familiar with!
