The Walt Disney World monorail has been experiencing many issues in recent months. One monorail dropped a piece of equipment near the Magic Kingdom parking area a few months back, now this shocking video shows monorail red running with the doors open!
Click on the image below to start the video.
Nervous giggling ensues as they near the Epcot station:
I think those guests were a more than a bit afraid when they noticed the doors were open while the vehicle was in operation. There’s no way of knowing from the video if the doors opened after they left the station. It does seem that it is time for a major monorail upgrade at Walt Disney World though.

I’ve noticed that odor inside the monorail for years. We joked that the elephants were sleeping in the monorail at night. Well about 6 months ago I was working in a metals manufacturing shop and the machines with compressed air hydraulic systems had the exact smell. I think it’s the hydraulic door systems on the monorail.

I too, have noticed the last few times I’ve been to Disney that the monorail was filthy and very smelly. You would think with the money that Disney makes they would keep their transportation in better shape. And, usually the monorail is packed and someone standing could easily have fallen out.

It was freezing cold in Disney that day and I think FL cannot operate in such temperatures. They should consider closing the state next time LOL.

I believe that if that is the case. You should tell a cast member or go to guest services and let them know. I believe that like everything in time it may need to be worked on. But then people will still complaint cause then they have no monorail and don't want to take the ferry. I was there that day and the hopper using the monorail and people were really upset cause they only could use the ferry.
