Talk:Mandalay Bay Tram

Express
Some sources so that one track operates as an end-to-end express service with the second one stopping; other sources state that the sequence is Excalibur—Mandalay Bay—Luxor—Excalibur (stops only at Luxor on northbound trip in order to encourage patrons to travel stay at Mandalay Bay.  Does anyone know which of these is more accurate and/or the latest status quo?  —Sladen (talk) 14:58, 11 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Found some more information: (ignore the misinformation about the "turntable" shown; which is on the test-track and not the Mandalay system) and a YouTube video of the entire 90second journey from Excalibur North/Express/Welcome to Mandalay although with an NYC subway system page and looking at the Google maps imagery.  It would seem that the trains run oneway and then each run back empty. —Sladen (talk) 19:30, 16 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Sladen, I too found several sources verifying that the northbound tram stops at all stations (returning empty) and the southbound tram is express from Excalibur to Mandalay Bay (returning empty): | and| seem adequate. Unless anybody can find any material to challenge this information, this discussion is closed. Pkkao2 (talk) 02:57, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

perfection161: What is confusing is the mention of peak hours (and implied non-peak hours) which seems to insinuate that is when the single (slow as in non-express) track is used for up AND down service which I DO NOT THINK IS THE CASE. I do not believe that this service has peak and non-peak hours - at least no mention of the same ANYWHWERE! Yes the single (slow as in non-express) track is used for up AND down services when repairs are in progress perhaps!?? 25th Oct 2014 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Perfection161 (talk • contribs) 08:14, 25 October 2014‎


 * if you're able to dig up any firm information (or even track down somebody familiar with the system operation at different times of the day, so that we know what we're looking for), then this would be most useful. —Sladen (talk) 09:36, 25 October 2014 (UTC)

Redirect Pages
I have seen the tram being referred to as the "Luxor Tram," "Excalibur Tram," "Excalibur-Luxor-Mandalay Bay Tram," "Luxor-Excalibur-Mandalay Bay Train," etc. Should we redirect these pages to "Mandalay Bay Tram?" (I have already redirected "Luxor Tram" and "Excalibur Tram.") Pkkao2 (talk) 02:36, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't worry about creating every possible permutation, just those that seem to be in common use. If someone types in one of the others, this page will probably come up as the first search result. Toohool (talk) 05:56, 26 September 2011 (UTC)
