Disney Pic of the Week: Monorails

Posted on by Scott Thomas
Monorails at Walt Disney World are not ride vehicles. They are an example of what public transportation could be. I remember growing up and reading the city I lived near was considering monorails and how excited I got. Sadly, the cost of a monorail system for even a small city is very high. That is … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Monorails"

As the years have gone by, many of the trees have grown very tall. In searching out a photo for this week’s theme, I really … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week: Trees"

The Monorail is such a favorite mode of transportation that some would even call it an attraction! In fact, I’d go as far to say that it’s a symbol for the Disney Parks in the U.S. Its “elevated” status has led us to declare it the topic for this week’s Pic of the Week. Come … Continue reading "Disney Pic of the Week – Monorail"
