Default Walt Disney World Parking Trams Safety Upgrades Coming?



Changes might be coming to the trams in the parking lots. Apparently, prototype trams are being tested in the backstage areas behind the Magic Kingdom park in Walt Disney World. The new trams are rumored to have automated doors for safety. With safety being very important to the Disney Company, these are being pushed by the suits. :D

No word yet on how long it's going to be before we see the new and improved parking trams.

Great idea. This would stop these silly people from "jumping" off of the moving trams.

Hopefully they can modernize the engines of those noisy things! In keeping with the 21st Century green theme, I would think hybrids or plug-in electrics would be something worth looking at. It always seems strange leaving such a technologically advanced facility and getting into a stinky, noisy tram.

The only thought on that, though, would be if they could generate enough power to pull that tram. Otherwise, I completely agree, Kiki
