Summary

On this weeks WEDWay Radio we take a look at an area of Walt disney World that was a part of the plan from the very beginning, the Transportation and Ticket Center, although the site and purpose saw some drastic changes from its original plan for EPCOT City.

The TTC has probably seen its busiest days and will never again be the bustling area that it was in the 1970's and 80's, but for a long stretch of time, it was a vital core of transportation for WDW Resort guests.  

Enjoy our look at the rise and slow decline of this functional relic of Walt Disney World.

Welcome to Wedway Radio 116, a show about Disney history, Disney parks, and touring. I'm your host Nate, and as always is my

1:48.4

but then sometimes it's just way too distracting. That's true too. Like if you're

cramming for the show, cramming your show notes. That's right. Like you're in college.
