The Walt Disney World Monorail that’s currently stuck between the Transportation and Ticket Center and EPCOT broke down due to a flat tire, a Disney spokesperson has said.
Fox 35 Orlando initially reported that the Monorail was stuck at 9:50am today. Passenger Kris Lenk shared photos and videos aboard the monorail and after he was evacuated. Three photos he shared can be found below:
Lenk told Fox 35 Orlando, “There was a loud bang explosion, and then we kind of saw a big flash of light. After that, the monorail slowed down.” He also told the established outlet he could smell burning rubber and a bit of smoke.
Thankfully, no guest or Cast Member injuries have been reported. Monorail transportation between Transportation and Ticket Center and EPCOT is unavailable at this time. Stay tuned for further updates.
