Why aren't there park-to-park buses?

I used to be a public transit planner. Articulated buses actually make turns more easily than shorter buses do. It's because each half is shorter than the length of a standard bus. They were originally developed for European cities needing high-capacity buses that could negotiate the tight, sharp turns of old European downtowns. So basically, any turn a standard bus can negotiate at WDW, an articulated bus can negotiate, too. So probably the only real issues Disney faces in terms of adopting them World-wide are operator training and making sure both public bus berths and backstage maintenance bays are long enough.

Thanks for posting this. It is very interesting (at least to me it is!) And it makes me a little less creeped out by the though of using those buses.
