You have got to figure if anyone can screw up common 10 codes it's Disney.

Yes, 10-100 means drain the lizard, lot lizard (pavement princess - a great new term to me) but at WDW 10-100 means emergency traffic, clear the channel (10-33 to everyone else in the world)

I can understand the need to shorten some things but why not go all the way and say "I had CC, HD, and FF at HOB". I think that is why I wrote the list as it has gotten out of hand with all of them abbreviations, some do not exist.

Another acronym, thanks Zazu.

I've heard reports around Monorails of an elusive set of codes, not well known today, the 800 codes. I am working to find them. I will report back when I get them.

There are 800 codes to operate the Monorail? Must be pretty complicated.

Isn't there a sticky thread on this subject in this very forum? When I first came here I read it top to bottom. It's rather informative, and covers most of the acronyms in here... or am I missing something about what this thread is about?

Yes there is. Just click on <Breakroom> at the top of this page and it's one of the first four threads.

I'll be adding those 800 codes as soon as they are posted to that thread please!
