I've found it really weird to see that Lilly and Roger have swapped each other's passenger car consist:

Could anyone ask a WDWRR Cast Member about the reason behind all of this?

I know it’s not uncommon for the engines to pull the coaches of other engines (ie Walter with yellow coaches, which are usually pulled by Roger), although I too have wondered why. This is my first time seeing Roger with the green coaches though.

FWIW, Broggie had the green coaches on June 8. I can't recall what consist Lilly had that day.

The benches were manually unbolted and rotated 180 degrees, yes? This isn't a situation where the seatbacks can be slid across or pivoted to change orientation for each direction?
Actually it looks for the world like yes the seat backs can be and were flipped. I do see a row or two that were modified by either being removed or having two backs to accommodate the flip but as for the rest of the rows..... Surprised to read there was more to it then that.
They should get one of the Holiday sets from Disneyland with the sideways facing seats!
I agree, this would be neat but WDW rr usually only runs two trains And the holiday sets I have limited capacity compared to the excursion sets. Plus.... Just not much to see facing inside at mk's railroad. Having said that I would be all for it, but I also understand why they've never done it. Of course the right solution here would be to put in some nice scenery along the route that would make this beneficial but we're talking TDO here, Masters of just enough to meet the expectations not exceed them.
