How disney can update the monorail system to the 21st century.

I have noticed tons of people throwing out new ideas for rides but why not a way to make an existing ride a lot better. My idea is loosely based on the harry potter hogwarts express. The idea would involve modifying the existing windows to be replaces with modified thin screen tvs. These thin screens will then have programmable content that will randomly present a different environment and encounter with each trip. Take for example, as you leave magic kingdom you will see peter pan fly by, say hi to the people inside, and then go over to a pirate ship down below to mess with captain hook. As you head to epcot figment will fly up to the window, peek inside, say hi, and then fly away. This way guests can avoid the boredom of the same old waiting to get to the next park and instead have a unique encounter that makes the ride all the more exciting. Here is a list of a few encounters you could have.

MK to TTC:
1. The grim grinning ghosts want to hitch a ride.
2. Peter Pan and the pirate ship
3. Stitch tries to escape MK but gets caught by Captain Gantu

TTC to MK:
1. Buzz lightyear flies by and recruits you to become a space ranger
2. Aladdin and Genie fly by to say hi while riding magic carpet
3. Tinkerbell and the fairies say hi

TTC to Epcot:
1. Figment flies by and reminds guests to use their imagination
2. Mary Poppins flies by on her umbrella
3. The guardians of the galaxy ask for your help in a daring mission

Epcot to TTC:
1. The guardians of the galaxy need directions to magic kingdom
2. Pelican, Dory, and Marlin are looking for Nemo
3. Ghostly hitchhikers are heading home to haunted mansion

This would be a fun detail to add! I especially like how each park’s characters are incorporated. Any equivalent for DLR, as well? I was also imagining monorail support added for more areas.

Im not as familiar with DLR alas but it could probably be modified to add something similar. I recently thought about adding the birds from the enchanted tiki room but it wouldn't be as memorable. Another idea I played around with is turning the windows into touch games but that would interfere with people's ability to pay attention to vehicle movement.
