Riding Disney’s Monorail

Over our many visits to Walt Disney World since our first trip back in 1996, one enjoyable non-park event is to ride the Disney Monorail … one train runs round a short loop track from central parking to Magic Kingdom, while a second train runs a much longer track out from central parking to Epcot – this is a great way to see just how vast the Disney property is (and to see “behind” Epcot as the train loops around that park before entering the station).

Tonight, we decided to ride to Epcot, and just missed a train – but never mind, a conductor said, you can ride in the cab when the next train comes! That’s always been an ambition since we first learned that it’s possible (the cab has seating for 4 people, as well as the driver) – but always the cab ride is given to families with children. But not tonight πŸ™‚
Kate, Chris, Margaret & I waited patiently for the next train, and boarded the cab … and it was excellent! Even with rain on the wrap-around screen, it’s the perfect way to travel in Walt Disney World, and one thing we didn’t know is that you are given a “co-pilot license” souvenir:
