Disneyland's Swiss Alpine Matterhorn Not Part of New Film

   The Matterhorn, Disneyland's  very popular ride attraction, is undergoing a $1-million overhaul.  Disney officials say the rennovations will not result in significant changes to the ride.  The almost 15-story roller coaster will be covered in scaffolding and closed for repairs for six months. Like all rides and/or attractions, the Matterhorn has to be maintained.  Typically the repairs on the Matterhorn last 30-60 days per year.  To reduce the effect of repair closures on a park's business most theme parks, like Universal Studios and Knott's Berry Farm, try to schedule major rennovations during the slowest part of the year- between the Christmas holiday and spring break, or in the autumn, after the peak summer season.  Disneyland says, there are no plans to connect the Matterhorn rennovations with an adventure movie that Walt Disney Studios is developing that is largely in the Pennine Swiss Alps.  See also, http://www.latimes.com/.
