Come to think of it, I'm surprised they haven't already done that yet. Or have they?! As I'm typing this, I do recall they made a tiny monorail tsum-tsum . . . but I'm thinking more of a 3-foot long plush monorail. With a squeeker in it.<br /><br />Sue<br /><br />P.S.

It’s sad that Monorail Red survived so long after it’s retirement and was displayed in the Rocket Rod preshow and then unceremoniously scrapped to clear the building out for Buzz Lightyear. Quite a big historical loss.<br />MIKE COZARThttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03616421722228113410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-25922463.post-59817037849986032492019-09-02T09:10:49.572-07:002019-09-02T09:10:49.572-07:00You really can't beat Bob when it comes to des...You really can't beat Bob when it comes to design. The Monorail looked fast, even in the station. Great shots today.

Always loved those side panels and bubble-top. And I love the fuller windows too. The Mark III monorails were my favorite ever created and built for a Disney park. Bob Gurr really was the best when it came to vehicle design and style. Thanks, Lou and Sue!<br />K.
