New Disney Bus Paint Scheme

[allgiggles]

What I meant was it saying "Walt Disney World Transportation" rather than "Disney Transportation"

There's something ironic about a little kid's T-shirt having to have "I'm going to the Walt Disney World Resort" (as opposed to just "I'm going to Disney World") along with several characters crammed on the front of it, but a huge bus only says "Disney Transportation".

I like it. Fits in with the aesthetic from the cruise line. Much better than
before, IMO. New bus paint, plus new FL restrooms, what will they think of next?

Love it!

Maybe it is just me but when I think of the name "Disney" I instantly default to Walt. Even though I know that Roy was probably more instrumental in make WDW happen than anyone, Walt is the face of the company and the name. So it just does not get my dander up when I just see the name "Disney".

I like it. Simplistic but effective.

Yea those other bus screamed detaile. I agree that is what I live about Disney is the attention to small things but I don't think the put the effort to the buses.

But then you don't really love the attention to detail. The whole composition starts to look off if only some areas have attention paid and others just left because they are good enough. The elevation of experiences, from the big to the small, is what defined so much of Disneyland's place of cultural prominence, and that philosophy should be carried over to all guest experiences at Walt Disney World.

I like it! Much better than the current design.

I like it a lot. I thought the magical express buses that were in this type of theme always looked better than the on-site buses, so this makes sense to me.

Now if they would only create the on-site Disney Taxi service, where the taxi's look like they're from Roger Rabbit, my dreams would come true...

Just the beginning..

All buses will be done, all trams will be done, and as for the monorails... Well, just wait

Don't actually like it too much. Looks like buses in every city in the USA. Nothing Disney about it.

I normally like retro, but I agree with you. This is kinda sterile and generic. Would it have killed them to say "Walt Disney World?" Haven't we had enough of the "One Disney" mindset? I want to say that even the Magical Express buses have a richer palette.

I don't like it. Looks too much like a city bus. The old buses remind me of all my great past WDW trips. They stand out. Then again, I don't like any change.

Plus, the original buses are simple to spot.

We've been waiting, I want those new monorails ASAP!

New monorails or new paint scheme?

Seeing the busses.....I'm not sure I want them to touch the monorails either. Outside of a new fleet of course.

I like the scheme, reminds me of early TWA planes. Very cool.

I would like to see "Walt" in there though.

The buses have said "Disney Transport" since the 1990s (maybe longer) why is it suddenly an issue now?

I know this wasn't directed at me, but I agree with the sterile look. Reminds me of the Contemporary. I've never had any issue myself with "Disney Transport". I've always thought the buses looked just perfect as is.

I just like seeing "Walt" in front of Disney. Not a major issue.

hmmmmmm...

The color scheme is very bland

So you prefer the previous paint job?
