I'm not the only one???? I can't tell you why but I find that facinating too and the fact that they still work that well after all these years!Big Wallaby wrote: Tonight I was at MK, and I stood enthralled as I watched the beam switch so a train could get on the service beam.

Ah, I see! That makes it much, much more clear, my friend.steverails wrote:Whoever posted the thing about looking over the driver's shoulder out of interest of transferring to the department...that's totally cool.

I usually turn the questions back onto the guests, like Where do you work? do you like what you do? you get paid well there? You ever crashed your car? Where do you live? I mean street address. When kids start the number game as in above (304, 304 , 305) I confuse them by staring a random set of numbers. while they are going 305, 306, 307, I would say 16, 42, 23, 216, Watch the looks on their face! Standing over my shoulder is NOT allowed. I wont move the train if someone is standing in my cab. But I will switch out from the back to the front As long as it is the same family, and it is only a one to one switch.steverails wrote: Questions:
1) Do you like your job?
2) How long have you worked here?
3) Do you get paid well? -or- How much do you get paid? (Like it's your business. I was raised bring told never to ask this question as it's not my business.)
4) Have there been any accidents?
5) Has one of these ever fallen off the beam?
6) Do you actually steer this?
7) What is that loud beeping sound? (Over-speed alarm)
8) Why are you ignoring us? (While Monorail Central is relaying important information over the radio.)
9) Are you really driving?
Things People Say or Do:
1) Stand over your shoulder for the entire trip with a video camera.
2) 304, 305, 306, 307, 308 (Little kids counting pylon numbers).
3) Switcing out people from back to front, which is not permitted, while on the Resort Line.
-If I missed anything, let me know.

So that's when you look directly in to the camera and pick your nose, make sure you show it to the camera. If it's Christmas time. try to get a nice big green and red one.steverails wrote:Whoever posted the thing about looking over the driver's shoulder out of interest of transferring to the department...that's totally cool.
