The Walt Disney World Monorail
system is not just an amusement park ride. It is a transportation
system. The original 2 track loop around a lake serves the many hotels,
the Ticketing and Transportation Center (TTC) and the main entrance to
the Magic Kingdom. One track is an express serving just the TTC and MK.
The other track makes the milk run serving all hotel stops.
The
other line is a single track line serving Epcot Center. It starts at the
TTC and runs in one long loop (Some may argue this is a double track),
to Epcot Center. There is talk of expanding the monorail system to serve
more hotels, water parks, MGM and Animal Kingdom. Lets hope they do,
there is a lot of traffic and the buses are not enough.
As
far as the City of Orlando, there is on and off talk of LYNX
building at light rail system, but so far nothing else.
