Actually, maybe ectomstr wouldn't mind posting a schedule for next October. That would give me time to pick alternate routes.

Re: Two Buses Crash Near Contemporary
As evil as it is to say a few friends and I were talking and asked the question:
What's next? A parking tram, ferryboat, or Showcase boat?
Personally I want to see two ECVs go head to head. . . Too bad Super Soaps doesn't happen anymore.

I'd give an E ticket for this. ;) ECVs do almost collide in Chesters when we are slammed.IndyandMarion wrote:I want to see two ECVs go head to head.

Yeah ECVs are still my biggest worry. One guy lost control coming out of the Monorail and broke a lady's ankle. Way to ruin a vacation.

Wont say where but I've seen an ECV, and driver, go right off a load platform.

My friend worked as a ferry driver. She mentioned one night there was a male CM. He was going to fast on the ferry and crashed into a dock injuring about 12 guests. He was fired for safety.

Been there, seen that, grabbed the ECV by the handles and wheeled it around just in time to save an SG the experience of getting T-boned by a 65-ton steam locomotive.IndyandMarion wrote:Wont say where but I've seen an ECV, and driver, go right off a load platform.
Then she had the nerve to bitch when I told her she had to go back down the exit and couldn't ride!
Yeah, those are the days in the Kingdom I miss... not!

Around here, however, we don’t look backwards for very long.
We keep moving forward, opening up new doors and doing new things, because we're curious…
