Passengers
first enter the observation deck of the Time Transport and are greeted
by animatronic robot who explains rules and regulations of the brave
new world of time travel that allows them to pierce through the
very fabric of the fourth dimension. |

After
this briefing, time travelers proceed through a jetway and
enter the Time Transport (three-screen 3-D theater with live
special effects). First stop on the tour is the Mesozoic era,
followed by Great Chicago Fire of 1871 and 1933 World’s
Fair. After
the collision with a train, passengers are required to abandon
the Time Transport machine and flee to Escape Pods. Amid blasting
sirens and fog, passengers quickly make their way down the
escape corridor of the obviously damaged Time Transport and
board one of the five Escape Pods (3-D motion simulators).
The Escape Pod begins to shake as the launch sequence begins
and the vehicle careens into the Chicago sky and enters a
time warp which zooms the Escape Pod into the year 2333! The
Escape Pods encounter eye-popping images of fantastical buildings,
flying traffic and even a futuristic car wash, as well as
blasting up the John Hancock Building, down the Chicago River
corridor, to the Board of Trade, before safely returning to
present day Chicago.
