Who else remembers the old monorails, which the doors had pneumatic door release latches, and attendants had to slam all the doors shut before the train could depart? Brings back good memories.

When passing through Orlando, we always go to the park and just ride this loop to feel like we are in the park, then head to the Poly for drinks and Shirley temples! Love it!

In 1981, Disney offered a special monorail trip from the Magic Kingdom to view the construction site of the unopened Epcot. I remember taking this same trip, circling Spaceship Earth and right back to the Magic Kingdom after getting a preview peek.

Yeah, the EPCOT monorail ride is more fun than the Magic Kingdom one. You get a much longer ride. Although stopping at the resorts is nice, too, and the MK has a nicer station.

@RobertsDigital Monorail is not a MagLev system. It is a train that runs on one concrete rail. Each car has its own motor and there are wheels that roll from the car to the rail on the top and on the sides for stability. It's a very smooth system though does not run quite as fast as a MagLev, although it does use less electricity than a MagLev (per passenger)

Monorails are great for short, shuttle distances, like around airports and large parks. The major drawback is, in the case of an accident or emergency, there are no quick exits.

The build up of going on the monorail before heading to the Magic Kingdom/Epcot always makes your Disney experience that bit better. Hope you have a great time! :) Por favor mentengase alejardo de las puertas. (or summin' like that)

I believe the majority of the monorail is reinforced, the front where the driver sits is not. If a family had been in the front during that crash, it would have been even more tragic.
