News New Gondola Transportation - Disney Skyliner -

[GoofGoof]

Naming is pretty obvious why it has value..

Now if it's 'The Skyway presented by Delta Airlines' - then I'm gonna cringe

Better than presented by United

Martin said thats not the name.

Yeah it won't be called that, but it would be simple solution.

 

[Minthorne]

I got it! Tomorrowland Speedway.

or

They wrap all the cars to look like Dumbo.

 

[larryz]

I think I'd call it "The Notarail."

[larryz]

Could be worse.. sponsored by United.. where you have to punch your way in.

Nah... with United, getting on is easy. Getting off is a real drag, though...

WEDWay's Aerial Lift Transport System (W.A.L.T.S.)

This is what I do.

"Let's ride the WALT."

Works for me.

 

[Doug Means]

"Let's ride the WALT."

Works for me.

wouldn't it be "lets ride WALT'S...?"

 

[MichWolv]

If the monorail is the "Highway in the Sky", maybe this will be the "Flyway in the Sky".

 

[Obobru]

wouldn't it be "lets ride WALT'S...?"

Oh god won't someone please think of the children!

Nahtarail

Martin said the name is in use by the Company already... so its clearly 'Goofy's Sky School'.

Never understood how Siemens never tried to sell Disney on any of their mass transit products. You'd think they would see the value in being able to pitch their transit solutions to potential clients within a working medium sized city like WDW.

There should be some construction survey markers visible if people are looking at the construction sites now. I haven't been able to get over there in a few weeks but someone should go take a look.

Having a hard time coming up with a name, but I will say that the gondolas really do shore up the problems at ESPN.

This is definitely a sustainable cable model.

Can you expand upon what you are saying here please? So far as I know the gondolas are not going to ESPN Wide World of Sports and I'm not aware of a separate system on that property either.

Or Spirit. "These gondolas will just sit here unused, because we don't want to pay our CMs enough to run them."

It's a pun on the word "cable"

Not as funny if you have to explain it.

Some do. Some don't. The fear is illogical in the first place. I have found that expecting people to apply illogical fears logically is illogical. One of my partners will ride the elevated portion of the Chicago L system, and the street level portion, but not the underground portion. Even though she's in the same train in the same seat either way. I just smile and nod.

I'll admit I have an illogical fear of some heights. Roller coasters I'm great with and LOVE, but big ferris wheels, Eiffel tower at Kings Island, if it's slow or standing in the same spot up high I get vertigo. I can't say I won't ride in a gondola, but that's only because I haven't been on it yet to know how I'd feel.
