1) How tall is the lift hill (from the floor) at Space Mountain?

No clue. I searched around and have had difficulty finding this one.

18 feet?

5) What is the "grade" of the Walt Disney World Railroad between the (new) Fantasyland station and Main Street USA?

1) How tall is the lift hill (from the floor) at Space Mountain?
No clue. I searched around and have had difficulty finding this one.

It's 77 feet from the floor to the top of the lift hill.

2) How tall is the biggest drop on Space Mountain?

18 feet?

Very close The tallest drop on both sides of Space Mountain is 23 feet. That's it

5) What is the "grade" of the Walt Disney World Railroad between the (new) Fantasyland station and Main Street USA?

Not 100% sure, but... 2%?

Correct The Walt Disney World Railroad tracks rise 2 feet for every 100 feet of length of track. It is indeed an uphill climb from Fantasyland to Main Street, USA. Had plenty of battles with trains on tracks right after it rained...LOL

I heard that the fifth engine they tried on the track couldn't even make it at all?

[jnfr2424]

Hey what about #3?

[Main Street Jim]

I heard that the fifth engine they tried on the track couldn't even make it at all?

Well...actually, we never "officially" had a fifth engine. We did *purchase* five locomotives originally, but the "original" fifth one was so badly rusted, it literally fell apart as they attempted to remove it from where it stood (on a pedestal in a park in Mexico). They did end up keeping *some* parts, but sold the rest for scrap.

Then, years later, we acquired "another" "fifth" engine (early 1980s). This one, however, never even made a run around the park; it was too small to pull the heavier coaches than what Disneyland has.

Hey what about #3?

#3 was answered correctly - by you

Space Mountain - 180'
Cinderella's Castle - 183'
BTMRR - 197'
Tower of Terror - 199'
Expedition:Everest - 199 1/2'. <--- Why is it "only" 199 1/2' and not an even 200'?

Very informative!

Any structure 200ft+ would require aircraft warning lights.

[Elias1901]

Haha, that's interesting enough!

[Zawadi]

A few questions on things I have seen around the parks on my current trip.

1. On which attraction can you find "The Knickerbocker Hotel"?
2. What colour is the hand gliders suit on Soarin'?
3. On Spaceship Earth,in the family TV moon landing scene there is a pile of vinyl music albums next to the radiogram. The album of which artist is on display?
4. Which creature, that can be found in AK is called Frasier, and where can you find him?
5. In the line for Nemo & Friends, what is the number on the Lifeguard Tower?
6. Disney has a lot of attractions that use omnimovers. Can you name them?
7. How many Friendship boats are there?

[Elias1901]

On which attraction can you find "The Knickerbocker Hotel"?

Gosh, I don't know... umm, maybe the Great Movie Ride? Perhaps it is Superstar Limo?

What colour is the hand gliders suit on Soarin'?

I don't know what this is? "Suit"?

Which creature, that can be found in AK is called Frasier, and where can you find him?

Frasier the Gray-Crowned Crane found at Flights of Wonder?

Disney has a lot of attractions that use omnimovers. Can you name them?

Assuming these are just the United States parks... Haunted Mansion(s), Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin/Astro Blasters, The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Undersea Adventure, Seas with Nemo & Friends, and Journey into Imagination with Figment... not sure if there's more?

[Zawadi]

Gosh, I don't know... umm, maybe the Great Movie Ride? Perhaps it is Superstar Limo?

Great Movie Ride is correct. It's on your right just before the train leaves the boarding area.

I don't know what this is? "Suit"?

The person flying the hang glider that swoops in front of you by the waterfall is wearing what colour coveralls?

Frasier the Gray-Crowned Crane found at Flights of Wonder?

Correct

Assuming these are just the United States parks... Haunted Mansion(s), Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin/Astro Blasters, The Little Mermaid: Ariel's Undersea Adventure, Seas with Nemo & Friends, and Journey into Imagination with Figment... not sure if there's more?

Just asking about WDW. There's one missing.

[Elias1901]

The person flying the hang glider that swoops in front of you by the waterfall is wearing what colour coveralls?

Ohh... I always thought the person to be wearing yellowish-orange coveralls. Unless my memory is way wrong.

Spaceship Earth? Always forget to list that one!

[Zawadi]

Both are correct.

That just leaves:

Number of Friendship Boats?

Number on the Lifeguard station at the start of the line in Epcot's Nemo ride?

[Elias1901]

Number on the Lifeguard station at the start of the line in Epcot's Nemo ride?

I know this is probably wrong, but... A113?

[DisneyDINK]

how many friendship boats are there?

8?
