OK everybody...this is merely a report...not a slam on anybody, so don't get all bent out of shape!
Went to see Wishes tonight with my girls...
pulled into MK parking around 6:30 pm and went to the west side of parking lot (trying to get my usual 'up-front' spot).
First thing I noticed was they're doing significant parking lot enhancements (paving and foundation work) to the areas directly south of CM parking (guest lots). Area was closed off.
While I'm gawking at this, I noticed a LOT of WDW vehicles in the tram lane between CM parking and "Minnie" lots. As I got closer, I found out what all the commotion was about...
Looks like someone tried to make a turn around the first island back towards the TTC and managed to side-swipe the poles on the 'Minnie' side of tram lane. Really mangled up two of the guest cars pretty good. Had one of the poles still embedded in the side of the car, while the first car was approx. 8' in front with the purple/seat sides of the car ripped off and hanging in a mangled mess. Not sure if anyone was on the tram when it happened (no-one was around but disney officials and maintenance workers assessing the damage).
And wouldn't you know it...the ONE time I don't bring my lousy camera!!!
The people I asked either played really dumb, or honestly didn't know what had happened. I'm sure a little of both. I'm sure people were wondering why the trams were dropping them off on the opposite side of the lot (east wing) for 'Minnie' parking. Looks like they routed the rest of the trams all the way around the back of the lot to access the rest of the parking in the rear.
Oh well. It was all cleared when I left around 10pm.
I'm sure someone won't be driving trams anymore!
