    News A look at the refurbished Monorail Coral on the Walt Disney World Monorail System

    No. Those trains were Monorail Pink and Purple, replaced with Monorail Teal and Peach, respectively.

    News A look at the refurbished Monorail Coral on the Walt Disney World Monorail System

    Part of the issue was the repaints they did in the late 90's/early 2000's were horrendous. Thats when Lime's original blue deltas were replaced with white, but the original blue still poked through as the new paint layer peeled off. Coral had multiple shades and sloppy deltas, some trains were...

    News A look at the refurbished Monorail Coral on the Walt Disney World Monorail System

    So about the spiels...I've been there 4 times this year, and noticed this issue only on the recently refurbished trains. The automated spiels including "please stand clear of the doors" were not working for the most part. I mentioned it to a pilot and they just shrugged it off as not being a big...

    News A look at the refurbished Monorail Coral on the Walt Disney World Monorail System

    Unlike many others Coral always had a delta but it used to be white, to distinguish it from the former Monorail Pink. I heard earlier this year all the trains were getting deltas that did not have them previously, however Gold was skipped when it was repainted this year. I'm not crazy about the...

    Monorail colors

    Gold was recently refurb'd and although it did not pan out, I heard it was supposed to receive a blue delta.

    Just came across this myself. Red can be seen 22:55-24:55 in that video.

    Monorail Red Updated

    Although I agree the current fleet is long in the tooth, it's not fair to say they are unsafe. But we can talk about that till we're blue in the face :)

    Monorail Red Updated

    Monorail Red recently completed a refurb similar to Blue's a few months ago. It received a similar paint scheme change with black "deltas" being added. It also looks like they painted the typically gray window vent accents black. As much of a purist as I am when it comes to the trains, it does...

    News Monorail Blue updated

    The short answer is yes. While the new Blue & Silver deltas do look sharp (and even Black is pretty cool - gives a Star Wars feel to it) the color stripes were very purposeful, so back in the day you could do a decent job of identifying a train from a distance and knowing where your train was in...

    News Monorail Blue updated

    Another train defaced! Looks too much like Teal from a distance.

    News Reflections of Earth confirmed to be replaced by Harmonious

    I was in town last weekend and wanted to give the show a fair shake. Personally, I found it underwhelming. No torches and several of the kites were broken. I've heard some vloggers say it was better than Illuminations, I don't see how anybody could arrive at that conclusion. But I did enjoy the...

    Rumor New Monorails Coming Soon?

    From the 1 pic I saw it almost looks like the train was stopped on a switch, similar to what happened to Gold a few years ago (can't bring work tractor on line if switch is blocked)

    Rumor New Monorails Coming Soon?

    Found some more pics of the freshly painted Monorail Silver online, looks like they forgot to include the D's on each cab, again. :confused:

    Rumor New Monorails Coming Soon?

    I too find it interesting Silver is now sporting a new delta. Of all the trains to receive a delta that did not have one previously, I thought it would have been Peach due to it being so close to Yellow.

    Monorail Lime finally out of shop — Blue deltas are back!

    Not surprising, Teal was sort of a rushed paint job when they were trying to get it in service fall of '09.

    Monorail Lime finally out of shop — Blue deltas are back!

    Very awesome to see this back. Looks like they put the classic D's back on as well.

    News Monorail Red in motion with guests on board and doors open

    What you see on Lime was never really uncommon. I'm not sure if this is the right term, but there's like a knuckle at the top and bottom of the doors and they would pop out from time to time. Whenever I saw it happen is when doors were in process of opening or closing in a station, and it popped...

    News Monorail Red in motion with guests on board and doors open

    Would like to see Coral get the repaint, it probably has the worse paint job of them all. Sloppy deltas, multiple shades of Coral. Would love to see the blue deltas return on Lime too.
