I've been on the monorail between 3-4 times/trip and usuaully at least once in the front. So in the probably 10 or more times I've been in the nose cone of the monorail, I've never seen or heard mention of the pilot cards. I guess it just has to do with whether they have them or if the pilot feels like giving them away.

I'm not going to tell my husband about this, I'm just going to ask... just the fact that I asked is going to blow his mind. If we actually get the chance, I think I will have two excited little ones on my hands........ my 4 year old and my husband! lol

I think there is a little card holder on the wall beside the pilot that has cards in it. My cousin got one, but when I rode in the front, the pilot didn't offer one. I guess a he figured a 25 year old didn't need one!

Hmm, I've never seen this card holder before. Could it be in the nose cone of just one end of some of the trains?

I'm not sure because I have only ridden in the front once. I looked as I exited and it seemed to be on the wall thing behind the driver right beside the cockpit door. I was riding from the TTC to Epcot.

They are on the drivers left hand side between their seat and the door. They've been there for a while

Re: Monorail

well this was a few years ago when you started this thread and it might have changed but you go to the very front of the monorail and there is a line
