This interesting news is coming to us from WDW Magic. Not sure why the sudden name change I guess they wanted to make the sign even longer. I am glad they don’t pay by the word.
Here is the article:
The ‘Tomorrowland Transit Authority’ has been renamed to the ‘Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover’. The original name for the attraction on opening day July 1 1975 was the ‘WEDway PeopleMover’. It was renamed ‘Tomorrowland Transit Authority’ in 1994.
From Disney regarding the name change:
‘The PeopleMover ride system plays an important role in Disney history and heritage and it is for this very reason we have decided to restore its name here in the Magic Kingdom. The name change from the Tomorrowland Transit Authority to the TTA PeopleMover is a way for us to link the past with the present, and in turn, guide us into the future. It is a way for all the promise and wonder that the word “PeopleMover” still holds, to carry on into new generations.’

The only time I was at Disney World when it was the Peoplemover, I was 3 years old. It will probably always be the TTA to me… just like it was always the peoplemover to anyone older than their early-mid 20s.
We always called it the peoplemover! 🙂
