if you are going soon and have a monorail set, look for this!

[I-4WDW]

I was at WDW last week, and bought this same monorail set with the WDW Welcome Arch, and the different resort signs, just like the OP got at Once Upon a Toy for $12.99. It was an awesome price, so I bought it without even thinking twice about it. I even put the Arch in the window of the hotel room (Pop Century), and turned the sign on, so it lit up. It was cool seeing people stop at your window, and look at it, saying how cool it was

Awesome set up. What is taller, the Contemporary Resort Monorail set, or the Main Street Train Station for the Train set?

CR is a bit taller, but the PEAK (tower) of the Train station comes close.

I added a flag pole to my station (just like the MK park's) and, if you count that pole, it makes the station a bit taller.

How much is just the basic monorail set?

How much is just the basic monorail set?

I bought mine when they were $60 for a set.

They sell them on-line at various vendors who buy and re-sell Disney park items (with a profit mark-up).
They are priced THERE at $75-$80 so the trains are probably still just $60.

Really not a bad price. They are very nice and well-built.

Look HERE:

The train has part of the "announcements" audio built into the engine section.
(But no, "Por favor mantange se alejado de las puertas".)

LMAO Fan mail.....well then here's more for ya!

I'm beyond speechless at the items in the set that you MADE. More specificially the fireworks! You must've had a ball...getting creative on things made for one thing but you end up using them for the various parts of Fantasmic. Very very cool!

Robo that looks just great.

I'll add a few from the TINK ROOM

And the latest addition broken wing and all

tmt~ I love that Snowglobe in your pictures, the one with Cinderella inside the glass and all of the Disney friends on the outside of Cinderella's Castle! Did you buy that at Disney World and when? Do you know how much it was? I would love to get that snowglobe!

Robo~ I love your mini Disney World, it looks awesome! You have given me some great ideas to do with my own sets!

 

[gems_smiling]

Thanks.

We do have those already and they look great.

Here's a few pix of our "mini WDW/DL/DCA Combo" at one end of our small living room at Christmastime.

Some of these items I built (like "Splash Mtn." and Mickey atop "Fantasmic! Mtn."), but most are off the shelf "Monorail Accessories" (many are no longer available).

We really DO need more ROOM!

But, if I buy a bigger house I couldn't afford to buy new "decorations"!
(One must have a proper set of PRIORITIES in life.)

The last small Pic is of our great room... just "slightly" decorated as well.

WOW that's all i can say lol WOW. Where in WDW is best place to purchase some of these items? Are there any other christmas themed items available? any other website or photos?

Great layout!

I wonder if we can get a "sticky" for model monorails? There seems to be a *lot* of interest in them.

 

[Caitsmama]

Wow.. All so inspiring , Thank you!! I have the large Cinderella Castle, so i think i just might have to get the monerail this yr!!! You have all inspired me!!

I ended up getting it off E-bay ( yes it was pricey) I wanted a nice castle with most of the characters around and saw that somewhere and it took me about a month to find it.

I think it's a release of Philharmagic as Donald has Mickey's sorcerers hat while flying on Dumbn the bacl side are more characters and 2 smaller globes of HM and SM they light up as well.
