Upon exiting the World
of Motion ride, we proceed through a sloping, gray hallway.
A neon sign on the left wall says "The Future of Transportation
is Here." Beyond that is a large profile of a face with lighted,
blue circle representing the brain. Restrooms are located to the
right. Moving into the TransCenter, we can view

things he'll have to do if he returns to the GM assembly line
from painting to welding. |
| D: |

From coal to electricity, nine characters debate fuels and
power plants of the future. |
