    Monoraril Shut Down after pilot shocked

    Technical issue developed on Monorail Green which required towing. The beam was taken out of service because the time it would have taken Green to be towed, the beam would have been shutting down anyway. The shocking issue was really a minor event. The driver was back to work that night.

    Already done. And whatever the person saw, it wasn't Train 12.

    Riding In The Front Of The Monorail

    And some do. You'd be shocked at how rude some Guests can become simply because you politely say "We are no longer loading the front cab anymore." The Guest seems to take it as a personal attack against them, and many of them turn it personal back onto us. I've heard, among many other comments...

    Land cleared by the TTC on the site of the Mediterranean Resort plot

    I'm pretty sure I made it clear that it was for a new Deluxe+ resort ;)

    Land cleared by the TTC on the site of the Mediterranean Resort plot

    Haha sorry. Look up the WDW Monorail system on Wikipedia and there should be a holdpoint map there I believe. Pylon 66 is where a train stops if the one ahead of it is in the MK station. 45 is where the train behind THAT would hold, and 26 is where the 4th train in line would hold. So the 4...

    Land cleared by the TTC on the site of the Mediterranean Resort plot

    The trees on the plot of Med. have grown such that when standing at the front cab waiting to leave TTC, 45 has become obscured. No one used to even have to worry about 26 because you wouldn't even leave TTC since you could see the train at 45. That isn't the case anymore. I will try to get...

    Land cleared by the TTC on the site of the Mediterranean Resort plot

    Yes I know that you always need to be making visuals, which is why my overrun count currently stands at 0. Another reason they are clearing the trees there is so that a train can be seen holding at 45 before you even leave TTC. I've seen pilots holding improperly at 45 with their entire train...

    Land cleared by the TTC on the site of the Mediterranean Resort plot

    26 is a very tough holdpoint to stop at, because the train is moving along at 40mph, so being able to see what color train is at 66 is very helpful, because if you see the color at 66 is the train ahead of you then you dont have to worry about having to stop at 26. however if the train at 66 is...

    Land cleared by the TTC on the site of the Mediterranean Resort plot

    In the middle of the clearing there are stakes with pink flags on them. Written on the pink flags is the words "Sight Line" if you don't believe me, go to TTC and you'll see them around many of the tall trees there. And it does make it easier to see a train at 66. I would know.

    New Monorail Crash Details

    Yeah the video report has two major mistakes. The accident itself didnt "spew" all the parts out, the parts were taken out when they were trying to get Austin out, and second the pilots seat they zoom in on and say that that was the seat he was presumably in is totally wrong because you can...

    You Know You're a Monorail Maniac When...

    I'm surprised there weren't any threads on the repainting of the TTC station thats going on. Everything that was white/cream is now lavender, and the ceiling will be repainted as well. A few months ago the MK station poles were also completely sanded down (finally) and repainted. I also...

    Disneyland has classic logo, why not WDW?

    Sadly, the Monorails are beginning to lose their "D"s. Silver was the first to lose them, then Black lost its D's from the Cab 1 end, then Teal came out freshly painted and did not have them, and now Black has lost them from its Cab 6 end as well. Three out of eleven trains don't have them...

    The balloons on all Monorails are the same. The ones in the middle are blue-ish and the ones at either end are red-ish.

    Space Mountain photo and video update (Sat 10 oct) - astronauts removed

    Did you see the trench dug out in a circle about 3ft across, 25ft in diameter and 1ft deep in the dirt between the Skyway building and the SM entrance?

    On the TTA 10/8 - Lime Green Stays!

    Well, I WAS going to get a picture but then TTA went 101 while I was inside SM and we had to evac....but the trench is about 3feet wide and about 25 feet in diameter. In the level ground in the middle were stakes and looked like pipes.
