In this un-lost episode, join Alice and Buddy as they praise—and criticize—one of the most iconic ride systems in all of theme parks. What makes the Omnimover so unique? How is it best deployed in attractions like Disneyland’s Haunted Mansion? What are its strengths and shortcomings? And, most importantly, is it really the highest-capacity ride system at Disney parks?
