Q: Do you know if the Walt Disney Archives, or perhaps some backstage area at Disneyland or Walt Disney World, has any recognizable parts of former Monorail generations? I read somewhere that Bob Gurr has a Mark I Monorail red door.

A: I went to former Imagineer Bob Gurr with your question. He responds that Walt Disney World had a display case with a front left door from a yellow Disneyland Mark I Monorail. Bob has a red panel from a Mark I; it is currently on display in Walt’s barn at the Los Angeles Live Steamers area in Griffith Park, and previously had been shown at the Richard Nixon Presidential Library. Bob also has two panels from the Mark I blue Monorail.
