Sarner gives monorail trains a creative facelift |

AV and Multimedia Company Sarner has revamped the monorail trains at the Alton Towers Resort in a move to entertain guests coming in and out of the park.
The eight monorail trains used throughout the Resort to transport guests between the Theme Park’s main entrance and two hotels carry up to 100 passengers on an eight minute closed loop circuit.
Each of the trains have been redesigned with a different creative theme, incorporating a complete visual wrap on the exterior with a co-ordinating coloured interior. This has been complemented with themed audio playing throughout each ride.
With an emphasis on bold, large scale motifs that could be viewed from a distance, but also had levels of detail that were fun to view close up, the carriages are intended to appeal from all angles.
One such example is the Caribbean train, based on the Alton Towers Resort Waterpark while others have a more humourous appeal such as the Moo-norail (pictured), complete with ‘Best in Show’ rosette.
