===Creation in Walt Disney World===

Although the PeopleMover was not an opening day attraction, there were quickly plans to add the attraction to Disney World’s Tomorrowland. When the park opened in 1971, Tomorrowland was not yet complete, and as such there was a scarcity of attractions. To help finish the land, a version of the PeopleMover was constructed along with [[Space Mountain]]. The Disney World version of the attraction was named the WEDWay PeopleMover, and it opened on July 1, 1975.

===Changes Since 1975===

Although the track layout and basic premise of the WEDWay PeopleMover have remained pretty much the same, the narration and the attraction name have changed quite frequently throughout its history. The original Jack Wagner narration was used from 1975 until 1985. During this time the only major change to the narration came when America the Beautiful closed, and Magic Carpet Around the World replaced it. In 1985, the rides narrator was changed to, ORAC-1 "The Commuter Computer". The new narration stuck mostly to the same script; however it was lighter in tone. While ORAC-1 was the narrator, Delta Dreamflight replaced If You Had Wings. Due to this change, the windows that once looked into If You Had Winds, no longer lined up with the attraction's scenes. Because of this, the first window was replaced with panels depicting the Delta Dreamflight's barnstormer scene. The second window which looked into Delta Dreamflight's Parisian Excursion scene, however the angle ruined the forced perspective that the attraction used. The third window (the left one) would have had guests looking directly into a bright light, so it was covered with black fabric which blocked guests view. The only other major change to happen during ORAC-1's narration was the removal of the Magic Carpet Around the World in the Circle-Vision 360 Theater, and the addition of its replacement American Journeys <ref> http://waltdatedworld.com/id219.htm </ref> .

In 1995, in order to correspond with the opening of the New Tomorrowland, the WEDWay PeopleMover went under a significant refurbishment. The original track which was white and very smooth looking was replaced with a darker, metallic looking track. A new narration was also added to the attraction, this time done by Pete Renaday. The new narration focused on Tomorrowland's new backstory, and made references to the fact that Tomorrowland was an intergalactic meeting place. Additions and changes during Pete Renaday's time as the narrator include:

* The Carousel of Progress being renamed Walt Disney's Carousel of Progress.

* The addition of the Timekeeper narration in 1994. This narration was subsequently removed when the Timekeeper closed in 2006.

* A change in the narration so that the ride vehicle was referred to as the TTA Metroliner.

* A change in the narration when Delta Dreamflight became Take Flight! in 1996.

* The addition of Buzz Lightyear's Space Ranger Spin. With this addition, the window that once looked into Delta Dreamflight was covered with a diorama of an intergalactic hair salon.

* The addition of a diorama depicting the fiction Tomorrowland Transit Authority Red and Green lines. This diorama is located across from Progress City.

* A change in the narration so that Federal Express was removed as the sponsor of Space Mountain in 2004.

In 2009 in conjunction with the Space Mountain refurbishment, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority was once again closed for refurbishment. Disney said that it was necessary to close the attraction, so that maintenance workers could work on Space Mountain. At this time, the attraction also received a new narration <ref> http://attractionsmagazine.com/video-ride-the-updated-tomorrowland-transit-authority-tta-at-the-magic-kingdom/ </ref>. The narration eliminated the New Tomorrowland backstory, and many of the in-jokes and references that came with it. New attractions such as [[Stitch's Great Escape!]] and the [[Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor]] were added to the narration, which was now done by Mike Brassell, who narrates the attraction in a much quieter and emotionless way. During the time that Mike Brassell has narrated the attraction; the only major change has been the re-addition of the famous Tom Morrow line, now located in [[Space Mountain]]. In the new narration the ride vehicle is referred to as Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover instead of a TTA Metroliner <ref> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j6EnR8fxcs4 </ref>.

===WEDWay PeopleMover Plot (1975-1994)===

On the WEDWay PeopleMover, guests would board their trains from the moving platform. The narrator would then welcome guests on behalf of the Edison Electric Institute. After leaving the loading area, the PeopleMover would head towards [[Mission to Mars]]. The narrator would point out the attraction, and also mention that across the way, guests could see [[America the Beautiful]]. This part of the attraction was changed when America the Beautiful became [[Magic Carpet Around the World]] and then again when American Journey's replaced that. After passing Mission to Mars, the trains would enter a tunnel, where guests could see the model for [[Progress City]]. The narrator would tell guests that this was a preview of the future in the City of Tomorrow. After exiting the tunnel, the PeopleMover passed over the [[Grand Prix Raceway]]. After pointing the attraction out, the narrator would also tell guests that [[Space Mountain]] was ahead. After the train went into Space Mountain, the narrator drew guest’s attention to RCA's Home of Future Living, which was located in the post-show, as PeopleMover riders could get an excellent view of some of Space Mountain’s post-show scenes. The narrator would also remind guests that they did not have to ride Space Mountain to see the Home of Future Living.

===The Tomorrowland Transit Authority (1994-2009)===

The WEDWay PeopleMover was refurbished in 1994, as part of the New Tomorrowland. When the attraction re-opened it was renamed the Tomorrowland Transit Authority, and Pete Renaday took over as the narrator. The attraction now focused on the New Tomorrowland backstory, and included a much more creative narration.

The female voice then told guests that the "TTA services all of Tomorrowland's outlying areas, including the personal rocket ship docking lot, and of course Perfect Park Acres, the latest in Hover-Burb Communities". She would then utter the attractions signature line:

{{Quotation|"Paging Mr. Morrow, Mr. Tom Morrow, your party from Saturn has arrived.}}

Attractions such as the [[Monsters, Inc. Laugh Floor]] and [[Stitch's Great Escape]] which had not previously been mention on the TTA, were now included in the narration. Another new feature of the narration was the addition of characters. Buzz Lightyear, Stitch, Mickey, and Roz (from Monsters Inc.) now have speaking lines within the narration. During the renovation, the ride vehicle’s names were once gain changed and are now referred to as the PeopleMover (again) as opposed to the Metroliners. When the attraction re-opened, it was also renamed the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover.

The Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover begins with the narrator telling guests to sit back and relax. He tells them that they will see many of the attractions that they may want to visit later in the day. He also explains that the PeopleMover is the perfect vehicle to people watch from. After leaving the station, the train rolls above [[Stitch's Great Escape]]. Here, the narrator tells guests that they can report for duty for the Galactic Federation, to try to keep Stitch under control. Guests then here Stitch taunting them saying, "I don't think so!"
