Mirage-Treasure Island Tram

The Mirage-Treasure Island Tram was a 1000 ft people mover connecting the adjacent Las Vegas Strip casinos The Mirage and Treasure Island. The tram took about 90 seconds to go from one end to the other, and was free to ride.

The tram opened in 1993 along with the opening of the Treasure Island casino. At the time both Treasure Island and The Mirage were owned by Mirage Resorts. The tram ceased operation in mid-2024, just prior to The Mirage closing for an extensive remodeling and transformation into Hard Rock Las Vegas.

Route
The original plan of connecting the Mirage-Treasure Island Tram with the Aria Express to connect the four hotels that were owned at the time by the same company was foiled when Caesars Palace would not permit the tram to cross its property. The tram ran from the front of the Mirage to the rear of Treasure Island.

Technical
The tram consisted of a single elevated track, with a single 2-car train running back and forth between the two stations. It used rubber tires and was cable hauled. It operated as a fully automated guideway system. The train had a total capacity of 120 passengers. One-way capacity was 1,800 passengers/hour.

The tram was built by VSL and Lift Engineering of Carson City. In 2020 it was extensively overhauled by Jakes associates.
