Coolest Trains On The Planet!!

[Night-train]

Just been doing some Googling and came across these pics of the trains that serve the Hong Kong Disney resort;

What I don't understand is why the WDW monorail trains didn't get similar theming! I know they are instantly recognisable Disney icons but on their own, ie place them in a different environment, and they are just another fleet of rolling stock! Maybe they will get a major facelift and incorporate some of the features on these trains in the future!

Great pictures, I agree it would be nice if the monorails were updated and a bit more colourful.

They are also comfy, quiet, clean and mostly empty. Every so often there is one of the Disney bronze statues in a perspex case but there is a small charge. remember they are not the monorails that get you from the car park (you walk from your car). It's a 10 minute ride from the main rail link that links Lantau island (where HKD and the airport are) with the mainland and HK Island.

They are fantastic! wouldn't it be lovely if Great Western, Virgin etc took up the idea?
