kinda strong statement. I suggest you back off and let investigators figure out what went wrong. Yes, Disney will be sued, but you have proved nothing with statements like this.

Ok they just said the locomotive broke off from the train, so what this sounds like to me is that the loco on the front came off, say on a downhill, and rolled out in front of the train, then the rest of the train comes down and crashes into it. Not a ride flaw, just an accident.

"Poor" loading is not going to make a train derail. It was either something wrong with the track, wheels, or a foreign object could have fallen in front of the train.

Actually you did way back on page one about them shutting down BTMRR @ WDW back on page one of this thread.

These things happen every day - they just dont get press cuz this happened at DL.

Even with a rehab. Doesn't mean nothing.

Come on CEO, relax... as I see you reacting now, it looks like you will never get on a ride at Disney or anywhere else!

Let´s hope the people in that train weren´t seriously injured and that everything gets checked properly so it doesn´t happen again. As someone else said, it could have been anything... maybe someone dropped something on the track or who knows. We need to trust that rides wouldn´t be built and open for so many years now if they weren´t properly studied and tested before. Whatever the reason for the accident was, I am sure will be corrected immediately.

Well looks like my theory is getting proven.

Entire park is closed.

If they are doing triage in the middle of the park, of course it is closed. And imagine the crowd? Just press and everything trying to get in there, Disney would rather shut down for the day than to fight with that.

If all mountain would be closed. I was right now was I? So WDW is closed. Am i lying? Will it get checked like the other mountains? Of course.

Yes you do have the right, just as I have the right voice mine about your strong-natured post. An accident at the park does not prove that Disney has no maintenance.

Too bad you would base a friendship on a single post too.
