Disney Transportation Tracks

I am not sure if anyone has asked this before...

But are there any tracks out there (probably live) of the audio that you hear on the Disney buses? I know that certain things play as you approach different resorts as well as each park. Like I said, it would probably have to be a live recording but I know that they are canned audio clips so I wasn't sure if anyone here had anything like that.

Just trying to add to my addiction for all things Disney I guess! :shock:

transportation tracks would be cool, like the ones from the buses. there's another type of transportation track i wouldn't mind hearing, too.

i love the spiels made on the trams that take guests from their cars in the parking lots up to the front of each park. i just love hearing "Driver, we're clear...HONK HONK", or the spanish translation of placing the kids in the center of the seat.

anybody have either the bus tracks or tram tracks?

Great Idea!

Would love to get those tracks from the bus audio! Might be tuff to get a good recording with the noises from the other passengers and the bus itself. But would still be way cool!! :donald:

Yeah I assume you would have to be on either first run or last run on the buses to keep the other noises from messing up any recordings. I just remember the awesome audio from the buses when I stayed at POFQ and wondered if anyone had anything like that.

I believe that the only tracks we have of any of the transportation system are either the Monorail tracks or the Magical Express stuff... I haven't seen anything come through from the regular bus fleet nor the boat fleet...

Maybe a Disney Nut can record something for us the next time they are down there. You just gotta love Mark Elliot's voice!

He starts at 1:50 on this video...which is amazing!

I have a parking lot tram recording from Disneyland and I think it is on this site too. But the live spiels - not sure about those. They vary so much depending upon the enthusiasm of the cast memeber and quality of the speakers at the time of the recording. I think I have an old videotape with some parking lot stuff on it.

I made some on our last trip on my hand-held digital recorder. I'll listen to them over the next few days to see if any are worth posting---then I'll need some guidance on just how to add the tracks.

I would be all over those tracks...I never knew there were so many WDW transportation junkies like myself out there. Give me anything monorail, train, peoplemover etc and I'm in hog heaven! :mickey:

The ones I have are from the bus from All Star Sports to the Magic Kingdom and return to the hotel. I'm not sure if I have any to the other parks or not, but I'll be glad to check. They are "live" recordings, so they will not be crystal clear by any means, but maybe it will be better than nothing.

That just makes it more like really being there. I think I may have mentioned this before, but I am putting in a request for a Transportation Stream like we have for the Star Tunnel and Soarin'.

I know there are more than enough monorail, train, TTA, peoplemover and more tracks that could be included. And I think there are more than enough listeners who would tune in. Also the Magical Express tracks could be include as well as the Cruise Lines.

A humble request, but nevertheless a request. :wink:

Ah, yes, the bus tracks would be great to listen to. It always gave me chills hearing the announcer say, "Welcome home!" every time we arrived back at our resort. It just added a little more to the magic. :wink:

Seems like I've seen a thread about adding tracks, asking permission to add, etc., but I can't find it right now. If someone can give me direction and where that thread is, I'll be happy to add some of the bus tracks that I've got.

take a look in the UPLOADS forum for information on how to add tracks.

I knew someone would come through...it's amazing the stuff we Disney nuts acquire. :)
