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

[s8film40]

I didn’t realize them till a few trips ago... They’re extremely small and hard to see with the naked eye. I’ll see if I can find a pic later....

I always thought they were more than enough. Not leaning on doors of a moving vehicle is one of those things that is common sense and shouldn’t need a sign to begin with.

Agreed...

Both trains at the MK station were have issues closing the doors when I rode Saturday. I also noticed those door slam hard now.

Ugghh These monorails better get replaced soon but for now, I'm taking the bus or the ferry...

I'm not sure how many are left but they are always performing maintenance on them.

Orange, Gold, Yellow and Red have been done. I think Blue has too but unfortunately that is not obviously anymore. I assume one is back there now so half the fleet.

New shirt idea! Picture of Monorail with doors open and below...
“por favor manténgase alejado del monorriel“

By any chance, was black painted around mid-late August of last year? Didn't see that one running last time...

It was more of a touch up. It's currently back getting the full paint job now.

Nice to see them atleast painting them still even if the maintenance on the mechanical has been cut back.

Black had most definitely not been repainted and honesty should be immediately. Glad to hear its back there because man was it bad!

Bob Gurr is not in a position to make an “official” confirmation so nothing is confirmed only rumored.

Bob knows more than many of us here though.

Doesn’t make the statement correct. Once again, Bob Gurr is not an official representative who can confirm a project regardless on the knowledge he may or may not know.

I do kind of worry that Bob may have based his statement simply on rumors that originated here.

Doesn't make it wrong either. Several of us here including myself have said Disney has been in negotiations on new trains its entirely possible.

That's possible but Bob still usually knows what he's talking about.

 

[disnyfan89]

I stand by my statement that Bob Gurr can not confirm a project. You may disagree.
