Monorail Guests Experience Hot Stall At Disney World
Disney said the monorail system experienced some “downtime” on Tuesday morning.
However, sitting on a very hot monorail was anything but the “good time” guests expected that morning.
ClickOrlando.com (News 6) reported:
What should have been a magical day for Walt Disney World guests hit a road bump when they were stuck on a stalled monorail Tuesday morning.
Guests told News 6 that it got so hot inside the cabins; they had to open the emergency windows for ventilation.
“We were all so hot and people were close to passing out so we took the windows,” one guest said… That [same] guest said passengers were stuck for about 50 minutes until the monorail began rolling backward to Disney’s Transportation & Ticket Center.

This is so disheartening to see.
Like the TTA Peoplemover in Tomorrowland, the monorail system is an important reminder of the original intent of Walt Disney World.
Hopefully — after the Disney Skyliner (gondola) System is solidly in place and running smoothly — the powers that be will give a good look at how to ensure interruptions like the one on Tuesday happen less frequently.
I know, “Call Bob Gurr!”
