But Disneyland uses a monorial as more of an attraction, then transportation. With only one monorial line, and two stops, Tomorrowland, and Downtown Disney.

I've frequently complained about that very fact to a friend of mine at Imagineering (as if he can do anything about it). But he has told me the exact same thing you've stated, Darren...That the DL version is intended primarily as an attraction. That's too bad though. I think guests are sophisticated enough nowadays that it is more impressive as an actual transportation system than it is as an attraction. I would love it if they would have it stop at each of the hotels, the two parks and the parking garage.
Of course, by the same token, I've always thought Epcot should have a PeopleMover (one that would continuously move, but the doors would open at each attraction, shop and restaurant. Again, that would make it more like the "real thing" than simply an attraction.

When did Walt intend it to be an attraction? I thought it was the future of Transportation. He liked trains.. they're transportation..

DL's are Alweg.The Monorail at TDL is from a different manufacture , and the Tokyo train was designed to resemble there mass transit trains which use a higer standard. The ones at WDW and DL/DCA, there from Bombadeir and are the same ones they are planning for Vegas
