Fantasyland Skyway Chalet Late 1950s

Shot of the Fantasyland Skyride Chalet. Designed to look like a Swiss cuckoo clock mixed with a Swiss Alps skiing lodge, the chalet served as the Fantasyland terminal of the ride. This building was definitely more interesting than the Tomorrowland station. Luckily, Disneyland has left this building in place, although one can only look and not walk up to or in the building. I always enjoyed the designs on the building that housed the line with the wonderful color moon and sun design. Image is from a slide taken during late 1950s trip. Other slides posted from this trip is the Caterpillar car from Alice In Wonderland.
