Post by bradhig »

Why do the monorails have little lights on top of the train by the cab?

To signal to other monorails on the tracks.

And because it looks nice and pretty at night.

Do they have monorails at Disney Paris and Disney Hong Kong?

They remain me of an old short lived show in the 70s called Supertrain even thou it wasn't a monorail but a wide track train.

No, there are no monorails in Hong Kong or Paris. Just at the other three.

I really didn't mind it's absense in Paris. It was really built for pedestrians it seemed. From the hotels you just walk alongside a river that leads to Lake Disney and the other Resort areas. It was a nice way to start the day.

And in Hong Kong, the busses were very quick.
