Ninety new buses are making their way from Livermore, California, to Walt Disney World. They’re not driving all at once, though depending on when they come off the line at Gillig, the manufacturer, they may travel in clusters, albeit slowly.

“They take five or six days to cross the country,” said Disney’s Vice President of Transportation Operations Mark Natter. “They’re driving at a pretty conservative speed.”

Guests will notice the new and updated wraps featuring fan-favorite characters and stories like Chip ‘n’ Dale, Orange Bird, Figment, 101 Dalmatians, Ratatouille and Zootopia. Natter said the illustrations were chosen by Disney’s creative team based on what’s currently resonating with guests.
