Disney has received approximately 70 / 2019 Gillig Low Floor Buses, numbered from 5210 (19) up to 5279 (19). 5279, the highest numbered bus was manufactured in June 2019. This group is unique in that they are all wrapped for different characters. In this year one of their buses had a fire while running for the employee shuttle. I have been unable to determine what the exact bus number was or if it has been repaired or scrapped. I had the chance to ride the newly refurbished Green Monorail. It is far superior to the other non rebuilt one's. I have the feeling that the yellow one is next to be redone.

The two Electric Buses are no longer parked out back. I have not personally seen them in service. Also, 4008 has been seen back in Schenectady Limited Stop Service mostly of last week, with it's Destination Sign Indication as such, except that it's sill in I-Ride Blue. -

Yankee Trails has added to its fleet. Today I saw 348 , an MCI J series. Not sure what year it is, 2017 or 2018. Will be watching out for 342, 344 + 346. In case you didn't know, they only have even numbered buses.
