Main Street Vehicles is a series of turn-of-the-20th-century-style vehicle attractions consisting of free-roaming motor vehicles and 3 ft (914 mm) narrow gauge tramways with horse-drawn streetcars in Disney theme parks throughout the world.[1] They usually operate in their respective Main Street, U.S.A. sections, transporting park guests from the Town Square at the park's entrance to the Central Plaza at the park's center. The original Main Street Vehicles attraction is located in Disneyland in California and includes motor vehicles and horse-drawn streetcars.[1][2][3] The Main Street Vehicles attraction in Magic Kingdom in Florida has nearly identical offerings as its Disneyland counterpart.[1][2][4] In Disneyland Park (Paris), the horse-drawn streetcars are billed as a separate attraction from its Main Street Vehicles and are simply named Horse-Drawn Streetcars.[1][2] Only motor vehicles are included in the Main Street Vehicles of Hong Kong Disneyland. In Tokyo Disney Resort, its Main Street vehicles, which also only include motor vehicles, are split between its two parks: Tokyo Disneyland and Tokyo DisneySea. Unlike the Main Street Vehicle attractions in the parks in the US, France, and China, the ones in Tokyo Disneyland run in the World Bazaar section, and have the alternate attraction name Omnibus; while the ones in Tokyo DisneySea run in the American Waterfront section, and have the alternate attraction name Big City Vehicles.
