Disneyland - 1986 Main Street Electrical Parade - Great Video!

Greetings, Jungle lovers!

Today I provide you with a quick link to a fabulous video from 1986 regarding backstage Disneyland and the Main Street Electrical Parade!

In this clip I even saw one of my old supervisors (Mike Vaughn) helping to put up ropes on the west side of the Plaza on Main Street toward the later end of the clip! There is also a shot of some of my old Jungle Cruise compadres rolling out poles by the east side of the Plaza (near the Plaza Inn) at about the same point in the video.

You simply have to check this out. Thanks to whomever was responsible for posting it originally!

For those of us who worked the Electrical Parade back when it wound through the Park (as it was meant to do), this is a trip down memory lane worth taking. There are even some shots from backstage Main Street and the Parade building near what is now Toon Town.
