    What happens to the Lost and Found

    Once an item is found it is turned into the nearest attraction or merchandise location. They will keep it for about one - two hours to see if a guest comes looking for it.

    Since you are only planning on a month or so look into Vacation Rentals. There are many of them (some are manufactured home that the owners are only Snowbirds). Use Google to help you.

    Train refurb in Germany?

    There is an exhibit in the main area of the Wilderness Lodge Villas (DVC) that is maintained by the Carolwood Pacific Historical Society about Walt's love for trains. It has many photos and other items including a train (static display) of Walt and his model train the Carolwood Pacific.

    OS: Confederate Flag Removed from Epcot

    You are correct that Epcot is not a museum, but the American Adventure Pavilion is and they have a full time museum curator. So does the Hall of Presidents, GMR, The Magic of Disney Animation and One Man's Dream. The old American Film Institute also had a curator. Security is required to lock...

    Character greetings that no one knows about...

    There are three locations in Epcot that "trainees" use. American Adventure, International Gateway and the South side (Showcase side) of the main fountain (very rare but sometimes Marie will be in France). There is no schedule.

    How hard would it be.....

    I used to work Buzz and there was a CM (still there last time I went) that would ride by himself, max out the right-hand gun and then move over and max out the left-hand gun before the end of the ride. You might want to try that.

    Only Fp allowed to ride?

    Thoughts on Disney Springs Redevelopment

    Doesn't Apple have an unbreakable law that requires their stores to be so antiseptically white that they can perform open-heart surgery.

    Cool Club - Epcot

    Another example is currently underway. DTD has had to move most of the retention ponds for the new parking structures and expanded roadway.

    Off-Hours Attraction Maintenance/Cleaning

    It differs with each attraction. Splash Mountain has someone walk the track and remove hats, trash, etc. every night. Space Mountain checks the brake zones and maintenance will inform attraction CMs which trains are to be placed in specific locations for regular PMs which includes inspection...

    Monorail Sets? (not sure where to post (as usual))

    I do not use a chamber as I find that it works fine without one. As for undercuts: it depends on the part. I sometimes make more than one mold and glue the smaller parts together to get the final version, other times the undercuts are not a problem with the flexible molding materials. I tend...

    Monorail Sets? (not sure where to post (as usual))

    There are different types of molding materials as well as different types of plastic to make the parts. It is easy to learn how (the web site has many videos) and I have had no problems making small and large parts.

    Monorail Sets? (not sure where to post (as usual))

    Many modelers, including myself, use Alumilite (Google it) to make copies of parts.
