Attendance at theme parks continues to skyrocket

Will the monorail extend to the water parks and DTD too? or just the main parks.

There is no monorail expansion! It will probably never happen.

There was a thread about the monorail a few months ago. The cost of any expansion is very prohibitive. It will never happen.There are many monorail studies in cities around the US. Austin Texas was one i had read about. One that was completed, was in Las Vegas, which was also a Bombardier design. the cost, not including land on these projects reached into the tens of millions of dollars per mile. Almost 50 million / mile in the Austin Tx. study. These did not include the land cost. The 4 1/2 mile Las Vegas monorail totaled about $640 million dollars when it was all said and done. I remember reading about an Animal Kingdom loop in the original planning articles about that park, and that it was quickly scrapped because it more than doubled the cost of the project.
