Originally Posted By inlandemporer I love the look of the new monorail in the video someone posted. After red is tested and starts running, how long before the others do?

Originally Posted By Darkbeer Well, supposely the are recycling the Iron Frame (no need to recast a piece of metal), so Mark V Red has been sent to Canada. That can allow a second Mark VII to arrive as soon as they finish it, including the changes needed to make it work (like the Mark VII Red). But the third and final train will have to wait until the last Mark V train, Purple, can be taken out of service and sent to Canada. The current schedule has only one Monorail running for the forseeable future. As for the "Official" name of the new Paradise Pier attraction, just call Disney, and they will tell you it is "Toy Story Mania!". Pick your division, Corporate, Media Relations, etc... A bit crazy, but just "ignore" the sign....

If you look at the thread titled: Monorail Red Arrives at Disneyland - Photos I do state that I heard a rumor that it might go off property. I was also the first to say that the rumor may have been exaggerated. Also, both posts were prefaced that they were RUMORS. I only post on LP so maybe this info was given somewhere else first.
