    Hey, we have systems like these in Israel (where I am currently residing). I know of at least two - one in Haifa and one at Masada. The Masada one is out in the middle of nowhere and would be too expensive for me to go joyriding on, but the one in Haifa is like an hour from me by train. If you...

    Um, the trolley cable car light rail system that they didn't build (circa mid-1990's). The permits were filed and everything, as you can attest.

    Wow, this is the first time I've heard you not rule out monorails entirely! There's hope yet... (I'm not endorsing monorail expansion, but I do endorse rail of any type!)

    Monorail Automation Testing

    I still do. By the way, did you see the news that Las Vegas approved plans to expand the monorail system there? It's a small section, but at least they are actually expanding it! Construction is set to begin once an issue is solved with a water pipeline running where a the system is planned to pass.

    In the small city I'm living at, they are linking new buildings that are under construction together using an elevated fixed track system that is definitely more high tech and higher capacity than this proposed gondola system. If it's cost-effective here to build such a system, I can't...

    I was hoping for a people mover, actually. If USO could link their parks together via Hoggswart Express with a themed people mover/ride/attraction, Disney could have done something equally as creative....

    The thing that strikes me odd about this project is it the apparent lack of direct link between EPCOT and the Studios. Granted, it's designed as a transportation link for resort guests, but it doesn't even do that efficiently ("L" and "T" curves). I'm not convinced that there would be enough...

    I've been withholding comments here until we have a better understanding of what is being planned, but here are my thoughts... (1) I've always said that some type of connection here will eventually have to be addressed. I've been saying that an automated people mover is probably the best...
