I loved the one that said my other bus is a magic carpet! When we we're there in September I think they only had that one and the one that read Hakuna Matata.
We were discussing what they would use for Epcot...
I like the ones they say VIP then theme park name on it.
Agreed!!Of course, if it's a REAL VIP, (s)he wouldn't be riding in a regular Disney bus.

When buses are not in service, such as on the way to be fueled and washed, or parked for the slow midday, there may be a character name on the marquee. The character name changes each time a new version of software is installed on the onboard computer. Usually all buses should be using the same character, but there are always a couple that somehow didn't get updated. So at the time you saw it, Chip & Dale was probably the character name in use for out of service buses.What are the Chip & Dale and DHAS buses that we saw when riding the other buses? I tried googling Chip & Dale, but it's an old article from 2000 and says it is only an internal bus at FW, but these buses were not at FW?!
Excellent! Thank you for the info!When buses are not in service, such as on the way to be fueled and washed, or parked for the slow midday, there may be a character name on the marquee.

DH stands for DeadHead. It means an equipment move without passengers. For example, in the a.m. a bus might start at DS, deadhead to CBR, pickup for DHS, deadhead to Pop, then pickup and return to DS.
DHAS means DeadHead to All Stars. There are buses staged at the All-Stars in the a.m. to pick up for a park when the regular route buses can't handle the crowds. After dropping off at a park, they would return to the staging area with DHAS on the marquee.
