During the Charlie Sheen Roast, one of the roasters stated that Charlie has a lot in common with Bruce Willis. Ashton Kutcher is filling both of their old slots.

Speaking as a guest it won't have any problem causing vibes. I have never, ever looked at the color of the Monorail. If it was a Monorail train and it was going in the direction I was...it was all I needed to know. That's the beauty of Monorails...they are mono (or one) it is hard to go anyplace that the rails don't. So bring on Peach (almost Gold, in certain light)!
That could be especially fun if you are coming down following Peach which is following Gold. You see Peach between the Poly and Grand, so you speed down the hill and find it sitting at 152. That could be really fun.

Seriously?

Yikes.

Scares me more thinking though about it not being a new train...whatever the color, that just makes me nervous.

I would imagine it's getting a whole new computer system. Otherwise, as you put the two computers of two different trains together, you'll have attitude problems like they did on Teal. We will see...

I believe the true "heart" of the train is in car 3 whereas the computers in the cabs are just used to digitalize the monitoring system. Good news is the trains don't really run on Windows! :D:

I drove a group of Girl Scouts to a tour of a USCG cutter. We got to the bridge and saw that the whole ship was run from a Windows machine. I asked what their blue screen to nautical mile ratio was. Coasties have no sense of humor.

The generic error that pops up won't give them that information.

Tell that to me that night it was the end of the evening, I switched cabs at Epcot, had a Propulsion and so from EC30 to Shop it was all three bypasses. I had to get up and reconnect my left arm twice!

Okay, that may be an overstatement, but there were times I was driving facing the wall just to relieve the stress in my arm.

One time I had to take Coral on Epcot to shop, but it was to cycle one more lap. As I passed switch 9, got a door alert. Had to do door bypass all the way around back to CC, C6 in reverse to 27, door & TC bypass through 9 & 8, to the kingdom, C6 to 52, and then door & TC bypass all the way into shop. :eek:

Good times! :D:
