I'll be able to give a report on which (if any) monorails have lost the pre-1996 "D" logo when I return from WDW after my visit. :D:

Actually, the tracks at Disneyland are narrower. Capacity is lower and they require guests to remain sedated there, where here they can stand.

Several differences.

Sedated, huh? No wonder my sister likes to take her kids on there. ;)

Sounds good to me! I flew from Chicago to Orlando once with a woman sitting next to Mr. Syndrone and I and her kids and DH in the row across. DH had purposely boozed himself into oblivious and she had doped the kids w/Benadryl. She yakked with us for the whole flight, while across the aisle they never stirred.

This may be my favorite typo ever.

It is a typo, right? BW? It's a typo, right? :)
