As the thread title says, Monorail Coral aka whitish pink, is the first Tronorail.

That's what's been published. Theoretically the only time you'd see them on the Express beam would be heading to/from the shop.
Plus, it'd just look stupid on the Resort beam, because the "Light Cycle" would be driving backwards... :lol:

The monorail drives cab 6 forward on EPCOT and resort lines I believe. Express is the only one that drives cab 1 forward, therefore EPCOT=resort line in terms of light cycle...I think

No, I think the way I stated it was correct.
Trains are moved onto Epcot from the Express beam. To go from Express onto Epcot, the trains pull out of the station in the same direction they'd be going if staying on Express. Once the train is on Epcot, it's still going in the proper direction. So whether it's Cab 1 or Cab 6, Epcot and Express use the same cab, and Resort uses the opposite.

It looks like Monorail Coral has been moved back inside. This means the painting on Cab 6 is probably complete. I would expect that the bulk of the rest of the work will be performed without repositioning the train, provided the paint booth is not needed for the rest of the job.

You mentioned paint booth. I have not been keeping up to date on this project, but I was under the impression that it was more or less just a huge stickum being wrapped around each of the train's cars and had nothing to do with painting. Am I wrong in this statement? :shrug:

The noses on either end had to be painted with the design, but the rest of the train should be the stick-on wrap stuff.

Express and Epcot use Cab 1, while Resort uses Cab 6.

Ah ok, that makes sense then. Thanks for clearing that up for me.
thats very possible.. I haven't heard anything about the 2nd train this is happening too... could be a way of bringing in the new train without noticing... also postpones the 'color' problem ..

We won't know when there are twelve. I thought that they keep one or two back for service.

We'll know when there are 12. Everyone will know when there are 12. There might even be a day added to the calendar when #12 makes it back to the rail.

ok, my bad. I swear I just had a monorail CM tell me express was the only one to drive cab 1 forward, but in my defense, it was probably 4am as I was walking out the door to my car with my brain only half functioning, at most.
