Does anybody have a list of the names of the trains at the Paris resort and the Hong Kong resort? I went to Wikipedia and got great info about WDW and DLR but not these two. Names and history would be great but any info is appreciated.

3 trains: Walter E Disney, Roy O Disney, and Frank Wells. They were especially built for the park.
Additionally, each passenger car in each train bears a name of an important Disney city.. like "Orlando", "Anaheim", "Marceline", "Burbank".. etc etc. These city names are not repeated from one train to the other... so it's quite fun to read as the trains go by.

Thanks for the info! The Walt and the Roy are also names of trains at WDW aren't they? Are they just the same name or are they called W.E. Disney 2 and R.O. Disney 2?

ORDDU: How nice to see you around the LaughingPlace pond, StitchDude, duckling! Thank you for bringing up a topic about the trains at Hong Kong Disneyland. My sisters and I were just wondering something about them, ourselves, the other day--while stirring over our cauldron.

ORWEN: We were wondering how much longer the train's passenger seats at Hong Kong Disneyland will be facing inward? I mean, whenever they finally get around to adding more attractions on the outside portions of the track, won't they want their guests to be able to see what going on there, too?

ORGOCH: Ya think?

ORDDU: Yes, one WOULD think. Orwen brings up a good point. Surely they'll want to have at least one or two passenger cars that allow guests to see what's happening on BOTH sides of the tracks.

ORGOCH: Kinda makes ya wonder how in the Heck TDLFAN was able ta git all them nice pictures a SMALL WHIRL bein' built whilst HE was ridin' the dang train a while back.

ORWEN: Maybe he didn't take them while riding the train. Knowing HIM, he most likely climed up the railings onto the tracks and got his pictures THAT way!
