    Large Piece Falls off Monorail - Being Evacuated

    Did you tell a cast member about it? That sounds like a wheel bearing at the end of its life, and would be reason for them to remove it from the system for replacement.

    Large Piece Falls off Monorail - Being Evacuated

    Many times yes, but if the issue is either out of view of the mirrors or on a car that is not directly under the driver, such as this, then it could be easily unnoticed. From what I have been told it was someone from the platform that noticed the problem and halted the movement.

    Large Piece Falls off Monorail - Being Evacuated

    That incident was much more complicated. From what I understand 100% human error.

    Large Piece Falls off Monorail - Being Evacuated

    Nothing fell off, it was obviously ripped off by something. Maintenance has nothing to do with an outside influence. Something on the beam could have come loose and stuck out further than it should have. At any speed, this could easily rip off this EASILY REPLACEABLE part of the train. Stop...

    PHOTOS - My Disney Experience Mobile Ordering is coming to Pandora in the Satu'li Canteen

    I completely agree. The portions are nice too as you don't feel you were short changed with the food.

    Avatar Flight of Passage reviews, comments and questions

    Finally visited the new area last night. It was raining to I took the chance of the lower crowds and I was not disappointed. I ended up waiting about 2 hours for FoP, but since I was interested in seeing the queue anyway it was not a big deal. Outside portion offers wonderful opportunities for...

    Modified Monorail routes in effect during late May

    So much love here. They are replacing the hurricane doors on the resort side. Too much noise to perform at night.

    Pandora Spoiler Thread

    Living with the Land really doesn't have much going on other than the occasional change of plants in the greenhouse, yet I find myself riding it every time I go to Epcot. The pull to reride an attraction depends on the person. If someone just wants a pleasant place to get out of the heat, wants...

    AVATAR land - the specifics

    So essentially the higher oxygen content put in for us means the other native creatures are running around feeling high on life?

    AVATAR land - the specifics

    That I'm not sure of. I think its individual, but it could be a shared mechanism.

    AVATAR land - the specifics

    They are attached to a Kuka arm type of contraption. Same range of motion. If you did watch the load video you will notice what looks like cutouts under the seats. This is where they extend from the load platform to allow for their motion.

    So the movement mechanism is below the ride vehicle? That is going to allow a LOT of movement.

    News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner -

    Lets say this. Red, Blue, and Black are operating on the express beam. Each individual train is NOT being loaded every 2 minutes. Red will be loaded every 10 minutes, Blue will be loaded every 10 minutes, and Black will be loaded every 10 minutes. 2 minutes at TTC, 3 minutes to MK in travel, 2...

    That doesn't make sense. Each train can carry 360 people every 10 minutes. That would be 6 train loads per hour, hence 2160 per hour for 3 train operation. @wdwmagic Just curious how you obtained 7k per hour for the monorail.
