What was this originally, and what is it used for now?

Answer:
This is an old PeopleMover car. It, and one other, are currently used as the sales counter in Tomorrowland's Little Green Men Store Command shop outside the Buzz Lightyear Astro Blasters ride.

You should have seen the smiles on the Cast Member's faces when I stepped back to take that picture. I guess not too many people recognize it for what it once was.

That's an old PeopleMover. No idea what it is being used for now..

..make a hell of a desk though, wouldn't it?
-- That's pretty much exactly what it is now!

Brian Martsolf
Originally this was a PeopleMover car, now it is a checkout counter, presumably it's in the Star Trader gift shop.

Jeff Toro
This used to be the PeopleMover, I think, but do not know what's it's use now.

Richard Blythe
It was originally the PeopleMover ride (I miss it).
Now they are registers, ring me up!

Tim & Malinda
A ride vehicle from the PeopleMover and it is now in one of the gift shops.

Richard Blythe
That is the Rainforest Café, mmm yummy food.

Anybody else have a RF card? Free appetizers and front of the line pass.
-- I never heard of that card. How did you get it?

Brian Martsolf
W.A.G. Rainforest Cafe? I spent a good time at Disneyland last July but DON'T remember THIS building... Is it off in a corner of DTD?
-- It's toward the south end of Downtown Disney, between the Monorail station and ESPN Zone.
