Real Genius-Type Folk on the Disneyland Railroad...and more!

[Freak]

I decided to stop by Disneyland because last Friday Big Thunder opened and that's a fun ride. Anyways I'm never going back on a Friday again, just seriously...too many stupid people. We were waiting for the block to clear at the Main Street station, and just as the light turns green...An entire family jumps off the train because "they didn't feel like riding." Okay, out of all the times to do it...right when the green light shows? Eesh.... Needless to say the conducter was pissed off after that whole incident (hell I'd be pissed off too). Then in the middle of our ride to New Orleans Square (what...30 seconds? ), three people decided to just stand up for no reason and change their seats! :shock: Oi.....

To DCA: A kid can't make the height requirement on Screamin'. Random guests start booing and throwing vugalarities at the Castmember. Yah, that makes sense...lets boo and cuss him out for doing his job. :roll:

::Fast forward to me and my friend in line for the Haunted Mansion::
Okay, so its about a 20 minute wait for the line...Everyone was stupid and went into the left side of the line, leaving the right side pretty much dead. As we're walking through the queue, we have some pissed off lady almost bowl me over going the opposite direction. I asked whats wrong, and she said that the line goes into a dead end. I go up to investigate what this possible "dead end" may be....A trashcan...which wasn't blocking the queue line at all....Such an obstacle!!!

Anyways, about 50 people got out of line, so that was great, because we pretty much walked the rest of the queue up to the house laughing at the incident. I was talking to a couple who also thought it was funny and we go inside the Foyer. Some anal lady tells us to shut the hell up when we aren't talking, and she makes her way to the front of the line to get into the gallery first, claiming the middle of her room to herself... What a bee-yotch...She seriously needs to remove the rod from her butt and knock herself in the head a few times.

Anyways..yah...Just a few outstanding guests at the Disneyland Resort that I noticed on Friday....Good times...good times...

reading this, it's just so surprising and kind of heartwarming that guests don't just yell at us castmembers and are stupid with us but even among each other. kind of makes me feel better.

The wimps on the Disneyland RR have it easy, there's only one door per car. On the WDW RR, we have 72 open doors on the train at all times. I've given start/stop signals because of families jumping out at the last minute many a time, sometimes as many as four times in a row trying to leave the same stinking station!

Roy is right.

not true one of our trains is set up like all the florida trains, however, it's been off the track for two years, and is scheduled to come back sometime in 2002, oh wait...

there are a few finishing touches that need touching on it, and we should have it 10-8, hopefully within the month, and this time it might actually be real, get this, it's been on the track once this month at night, which means, within the year we should see it with guests.

Anyway, as i've established before, i am not always disney when it comes to being unsafe on my train, ie standing, so if anyone tries jumping, Excursion has the easiest bells of all the trains to ring, and if you're standing, i'm going to use it, and if need be your day at disney ends at the next station.

wee need some sort of collapseable gate to go on those types, the problem is disney is so cheap, that any kind of nice things are completely out of the question.
