Mayor Curt Pringle of Anaheim, California, has proposed to build a monorail to connect the tourist area with a planned transportation hub. He is planning on seeking funding from private businesses to build a monorail from Disneyland area to the proposed Anaheim Regional Transportation Intermodal Center. The mayor doubts the city will get the $250 million needed so has been reaching out to businesses like Disney to help fund it. The system would likely serve about 2.6 million people annually.

I’m ALL FOR IT. Heck, I’d front the cash myself, but I’m short $250 million.

WOW! That would be incredible! I could give $1 to it: every little bit helps.

If DL made a donation center for the project, it would probably get funded incredibly fast. Maybe they could sell tiles or something that would become part of the walkway to the monorails (like the ‘walk around the world’ in WDW), they could easily make enough money to make this thing off that.
