Interesting Boats with Interesting Views

WDWNT Author on September 10, 2008

Here are a couple of interesting updates from our friends over at Screamscape:

I’ve been informed that the previously listed Pirates month long rehab of Pirates one scheduled for Mid October has been delayed until sometime in early 2009. On a fun note however, the next time you in pirates see if you can spot a couple of boats that look a little different from the rest. Apparently they are currently running two new prototype boats in advance of the early 2009 rehab, trying to work out the bugs and and see what kind of effect these new boats have on the attraction.

Apparently you may be able to see the new Monorail Orange occasional on the track just outside the barn from the freeway. From one eyewitness report it looked like the windows were still covered up with plastic-wrap.

However don’t expect Monorail Orange to be up & running (even testing) for quite a while.

A Deceiving Orange

Various reports have said that Monorail Orange arrived in the Pongo lot approximately an hour ago. Now we’re not sure if it really did arrive or not, however our new on the spot reporter Chris Lastrapes will be at the Resort tomorrow, & he’ll try find out the latest on the Monorails & the rest of the happenings around the Disneyland Resort!

According to our friends over at Screamscape, Mark VII Monorail Orange should be arriving at the Pongo parking lot sometime between Wednesday & Thursday this week. From there it will be moved via a crane into the Monorail Roundhouse early Friday morning. However, various other reports have said that Monorail Orange won’t be arriving at the Disneyland Resort until 2009, so it’s really anyones guess on this one.
