What do you suggest?
Anti-Matter?
Graviton Steel?
Anti-Netronic Touchy-Feely Fields?
Last I checked, the queue was made with some pretty durable stuff. Steel, Metal, Wood, various plastics, and set drywall. I really don't think there's much else to use.
:lol:
If it's possible, they could do it.Well you can't have Cast Members walking in a full queue, so for that to happen you'd need to install more cameras, infrastructure for said Cameras, a new room to monitor the cameras, a new position which means they'd have to hire several more workers, (Which they can't right now anyways), then add in the fact that OTHER attractions would need this too, PLUS most of the damage is caused over time, rather than one major incident. A shove here, a touch there. After awhile the paint just gets worn off, so a person monitoring this on camera A: Wouldn't Notice Anything, B: Would have to abandon post and march across the building to start an incident with a Guest. (Oh boy)
Would it be nice to catch occasional troublemakers? Yes. Is it worth the money? No. Most real bad guests (The toliet-takers, the rippers, the snatchers) Get turned in or noticed by a Cast Members anyways.
is there flashing red lights if it breaks? or do we only use it for the carnivores?20,000 volts electric fencing.:lookaroun

They used to do these things in the past, even though it was a hassle, like you said.
That's a shame.
From what I heard the Disney parks in Asia are ridiculously clean.
The people have a huge amount of respect of props and stuff.
Paris is spotless it's just sometimes there needs some fresh paint or lights.
Trash isn't a problem. :shrug:
isnt it time to close it for a refurb? like they do most major attractions
It's not working, then...If vandalism and destruction of a queue is happening, why just let it happen?:shrug:In sum Fifty odd Years of attractions, the standard is, and always has been, A walk through of the queue before opening and after closing, to sweep, collect trash, and mark any areas in need of upkeep.
Aside from a bigger Maintenance and upkeep budget, there's nothing else to do.

There has never, ever, EVER, been an attraction built with queue monitoring Cameras. (*With the exception of Indiana Jones Adventure post Fastpass, They have a Camera way up at Merge to monitor Crowd Flow I believe.)
Again, NO queue in the history of Disney has ever had a dedicated monitoring tower to catch vandalism. Total, and complete fact fail. Heck, most ATTRACTIONS, including Midway Mania, lack a Tower to monitor even INSIDE the ATTRACTION.

I think the reference to "doing these things in the past" was about your comment of CMs walking the queue to clean. I know that a couple decades ago, they sometimes had custodial CMs *walk* the queues of some attractions along with the Guests and sweep as they went. (I most often heard this in reference to Fantasyland attractions on busy days).
At some point this practice stopped. In the pre-FastPass era, the Standby lines moved steadily enough that this was a viable option. Nowadays, it would be rather inefficient on queues like Pan or Pooh where the Standby queue never moves. At least in the old days, it always crept forward.

Custodial CMs still regularly walk the queues to clean up at Disneyland.
God, so true. As an American, I get so embarrassed about my own country sometimes. I feel like we're the special kid in a class room :brickThis is why most American queue props are not within reach of the guests. Because most Americans will destroy anything they can get their hands on.
Americans usually know the boundaries, and I'm sure so does every other culture out there.
Take EE queue for example. There is a painting of the yeti on a canvas right in guest reach below eye level for anyone to vandalize. Nothing has happened. I was pretty socked and amazed to see they would let this be in their queue. The only vandalism I saw was someone carving 'Ashley' in a wooden table top in the camper room. Since EE is younger, I think the damage is just from young kids. Kids don't ride EE, but they never trash that. Many kids ride TSMM, it's trashed. And I don't think it boils down to where the kids are from. Kids will be kids.
