Here's a picture of Monorail Lime's rear, taken last Saturday.

Sillyspooky....

I may be mistaken about this and god knows I would never, ever challenge your Disney expertise.....BUT....Monorail Lime's rear looks a lot like his front. How can you be absolutely certain that is the rear?

(Mark this in the lame post column)

When it comes to Monorails its all about perspective. If they are going frontwards then the back is the back and the front is the front, but if they go backwards then the back is the front and the front is the back. So if the monorail in the picture is going frontward, then that is a picture of the back, because the back is the back. If its going backward, then its a picture of the back, because the front is the back. So either way, it's the rear. (of course the same argument works for the front end, and it doesn't make any more sense that way.)

None of this really matters though, as long as they say "Por favor, mantegan se allejado de las puertas."

Technically there is a front and a back. Each monorail train has six cars, with cab one being the front and cab six being the back. On the TTC/MK express and Epcot lines, the driver is in cab one. On the lagoon resort line, the driver is in cab six so the monorail is actually going backwards.

Externally they look identical. However, the cab the driver is in has its headlight on while the other one has its strobe light on. In that picture the headlight isn't on. You can't tell if it is cab one or cab six, but you can tell that it is in the rear!

Hey Monorail Lime, welcome back. You were missed, esp. by Mr. Lightbeer.

Actually, I know it was the rear because it was leaving as I took the picture.
