Show me your math then.

Okay, thank you for clearing that up for me.

I'm not familiar with gondolas, but can cars be added to the cable at a whim? I know that the capacity of the express beam is 5 trains and it takes 5 minutes to add a train. I'm not seeing what logic you are not understanding.

As a matter of fact I have first hand experience. Trains are supposed to be in and out in a minute and a half give or take 30-60 seconds for ECV's or slow loaders. 360 x 3 = 1080 1080 x 2 =2160 since each train will reach the station twice in an hour That's 2160 theoretical guests per hour with...

It's more like 360 every 2 minutes so please use accurate numbers. Don't forget about the large amount of ECVs, wheelchairs, and strollers in use. Yes, busses and boats can be added at a whim, assuming there are more available, but and ecv or wheelchair turns a 2 minute bus load time into a 10...

Every transportation method is being swamped by the current guest demands. At this same peak time, buses at all resorts are swamped, boats at all resorts are swamped, monorails are swamped, and ferries are swamped. This isn't a monorail problem, its a site wide capacity problem, and a monorail...

Worked on

I completely agree with regards to the cast members passing on information to the guests. A lot of times it is just easier to explain they are not operational, and point the guests to the mode that will complete their trip. While the majority of the cast do know exactly what the problem is, if...

There is a lot at play that is outside of guest information. Having 4 trains on express and resorts, and 3 on Epcot would be optimal, but many times the shop needs to keep the trains for maintenance, or an unforseen issue arises during the opening process. With the new system adding and removing...

Remember 2 months ago a new operations system, semi automated, was activated with the monorails. They are still in the adjustment phase with bugs still being found, speed zones needing to be adjusted, etc. A lot of effort is also going into bringing the trains back up to the standard they should...

With well placed stations the majority of the resorts could have monorail access. Not always right out the front door, but maybe a short walk to reach a station. All while connecting the remaining parks and springs.

They are not going to risk damaging the new paint with a wrap. So, yes, it means they won't wrap them.

Blue has already been done, and orange is currently in the booth.

No wraps. Trains are being painted.

When I drove it, roughly 4am, it was 2.

As promised I have a few updates on the construction. A. If you remember the road sign that was taken out by an SUV a while back, it is now, as of this morning, back in place. B. There has been a lane shift on the north bound lanes. It's been reduced to 2 lanes, but is now further left on new...

Overall the parks are nowhere near short on trees. Maybe in certain high traffic areas, but the parks are far from barren.

Sad to hear you had a bad experience, but I'm pretty sure Paddlefish is not Disney owned.

They will likely never reverse the monorail direction on Epcot because of show.

5 trains would actually be counter-productive. The time your not standing in the queue would be replaced standing in a train waiting for "further traffic clearance". 3 is actually the smoothest.
