WED (the Disney Imagineers) designed four rides for the 1964/1965 New York World's Fair: "it's a small world" (for Pepsi), "Progressland" (for General Electric), "The Magic Skyway" (for Ford), and "Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln" (for the state of Illinois). After the fair, the rides were transported back to California for use in Disneyland. Of these, two are currently located in Walt Disney World: a replica of "it's a small world", and "Progressland" (now called "The Carousel of Progress").
