Default The Official Monorail Mark VII Thread

January 2006- Burke Design provided composite engineering services during the design phase of an updated monorail for the Disneyland theme park in Anaheim, CA. Walt Disney Imagineering (WDI) contracted TPI Composites of Warren, RI to engineer and manufacture the monorail's new composite nose and tail sections. In our consulting role to TPI, and working closely with WDI, we provided the composite laminates for Finite Element Analysis (FEA), prepared the manufacturing plan, construction drawings and part weight estimates, and participated in the material testing program. Construction of the tooling is now underway, with the fabrication and assembly of the nose and tail sections scheduled to be complete in the third quarter of 2006.The "Bubble-Tops" will not be added due to the low clearances around the park.

I don't know if this is a rumor or not, if it's not a rumor, please move this.
