WDW monorail passengers stranded after power failure

Hundreds of Walt Disney World monorail passengers were stranded for hours following a power outage early this morning, according to published reports.

Seven monorails were operating at the time of the power failure, according to a report on WOFL-TV’s Web page. The report indicated one train was empty, three were at stations and three others were between stations at the time of the power outage.

The Associated Press reported that firefighters evacuated some passengers from the trains, but the bulk of passengers disembarked after the monorails were towed to stations.
