I recently posted a thread, wondering if a refurn and extension of the system would be feasible. I have compiled some information, based on my knowledge of the existing system at the resort. Bar in mind, that this new transportation would eventually bring about the end of the bus system. Also it would take a miracle for the WDC to look at this proposal.
The following expansions would be completed in two or three phases.
Phase One: A New Transportation Plaza, New Lines to the existing parks (w/o Monorail service), a system of LIM enclosed transport vehicles (for the resorts)
This phase will consist of a grand Transportation plaza that will link two different transportation types. The Transportation Plaza will be designed in a modern (metal, glass, atriums, spiral escalators) fashion. There will be three new monorail lines at the TP (MGM, DAK, and the TTC {for trans. to the barn}). These lines will all be connected to each other at the TP, usinf the newest most advanaced swutching technology. During this phase all Deluxe Resorts will be connected via a enclosed PM style transport, that is elevated and travels along a LIM track, similar to that seen in Minority Report, except on a much smaller scale. Six new trains will be designed and added for this phase. The trains running on the TTC,Epcot lines will remian in service. The current trains will be able to run on these lines when necessary
Phase Two:A TTC, Resort, Epcot line refurb (including new trains). The Value Resorts and The Corondao Springs resorts are linked via the PM style transport to the TP. Construction will begin on a fourth line to DTD. All trains will be capable of running of each line, creating an ability to use as many trains on as many lines as needed.
Phase Three: The DTD line opens, and a PM style transport opens between all other resorts and the TP. At this point the resort will be fully integrated in the PM sytle transport and monorail (with the boats also). Buses will only be needed when absolutely necessary.
So, your thoughts, comments, opinions.
