BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted June 16, 2017 Report Share Posted June 16, 2017 Chip and Co posted this update 10 minutes ago... Quote **UPDATE: Disney Spokesperson says monorail was was down for 20 minutes but is back up and running now. The BLUE monorail was able to make it back to the station so there was no need for evacuations. No reports of injuries. Crews isolated the malfunctioning monorail car on the rail and appeared to be inspecting a part of the track using a lift. http://www.chipandco.com/blue-monorail-evacuated-possibly-due-monorail-piece-falling-off-272648/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
