A caboose would really be more appropriate for a freight consist and we operate passenger trains.

The trains do have the sign on the back coach signaling the end of the train - just like all passenger trains have. There is a name for that sign...but I can't seem to remember it... :?

Drumhead.

While impractical and completely unnecessary, I would love to see a little more variety in the train consists. A nice parlor car--even one based on the Lilly Belle--would be nice.

That would be about 50 years (at least) too modern for the theme of the WDWRR. But it would be cool to see- and ride in if it was air conditioned. The humidity in FL is brutal.

YES it was a ridiculous thought but I am partial to the California Zephyr domed observation car. I can see modifying the last car to have the last row reversed and a brass railing around the observation deck giving a little more room for the guests of the conductor. Then the train would not be too long for the stations.

I Think Idea of having a VIP Wooding Passenger Train With a Combine,2 Coachs,and a Obervation Car And they will all look like the Lilly Belle at WDW and will be avaible for Park Guest to ride it on busy Days! 8)
