Disneyworld to create new monorail job

Great news from Jason Garcia at the Orlando Sentinel.

Walt Disney World plans to create a new position — and a higher pay scale — for the employees who direct the movements of its monorail trains.

The new “central monorail controller” position will be responsible for overseeing traffic along the resort’s 15-mile-long monorail network.

Responsibility for train movement currently rotates among a broader group of monorail “coordinators,” who also handle other duties, such as employee scheduling.
