Nice job, Mr. Pinocchio! I'm very impressed!

Now, my question is what is a fish doing in a tree?

Alright... It's been a while since the last trivia question. Here's a new one for everyone:

Somewhere in Disneyland, there is a steam engine that is not in use any longer that can be seen while waiting in line for one of the park's attractions. Which attraction's queue is it, and more importantly what movie was the steam engine used in?

Clarification time - steam engine as in railroad engine or a stand-alone power [ie - sits on the the ground] engine?

That might be too much information and give it away...

If no one guesses the answer in a few days, I'll let you know.

Alright, well I'll bite on the first half and say Big Thunder but I have no idea on the second part...

Absolutely Correct!

Nice job, G2-4T!

Now, does anyone know what movie it appeared in?

I have one from the happiest place on earth...

Once upon a time, Disney characters wandered around the park alone, or only accompanied by other costumed characters.

Nowadays, they have non-costumed cast members standing by, and they tend to stay in one place.

What reportedly near-fatal incident was the immediate cause for this change?

If I remember correctly, when I went in late February, a hole was broken into it so they probably removed it for making bad show.

I don't know the particular incident, but it sounds really painful. It wasn't that one time when Mickey was getting the crap beaten out of him was it?

Close... This particular incident happened in the late 70s, I believe.

Is that the time when Mickey was thrown into the moat?
