The Liberty Belle Riverboat at Magic Kingdom is a real working paddle steamer. It was built entirely from scratch in dry dock at Disney World. Everything is working except for the steering. It doesn't need steering as it travels along a steel cable underwater.
This bit of trivia is from Lou Mongello's Walt Disney World trivia iphone app. I really enjoy every bit of trivia I learn from this app.

ReplyDeleteI had no idea - though it doesn't surprise me. Disney doesn't do anything at 50% - always 100%!
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful photo, Deb! Thanks for the trivia & for linking up this week!
