Very cool... the "Magic Skyway" is so intriguing to me, as is the entire Ford pavilion. It's truly incredible that these big companies could afford to underwrite a huge attraction like that back in those days!
In my never ending quest to read every Popular Science and Popular Mechanics ever printed, I stumbled across this neat little article I wanted to share.

From November 1963, here’s fun look at the testing in Glendale, CA for the Fords Magic Skyway that would appear at the 1964 New York Worlds Fair. I want to ride in the Lincoln Continental! What, they don’t have engines???

So that's where they tested out the Peoplemover traction concept.
Tokyo, good catch on Rolly. I wonder if he had anything to do with the design, or if he was just handy for use as a model to hold a paint brush.
