Las Vegas Trams


The trams in Las Vegas are all private operations, connecting hotels that are owned by the same company. There were three of them documented on the map I found at VegasJourney.com. One of those was closed due to construction taking place between the Monte Carlo and the Bellagio. I could see pillars in the middle of the construction that suggested it would be back some day but can't say for sure. I was able to ride the other two, one between the Mirage and Treasure Island and the other connecting Excalibur, Luxor and Mandalay Bay. Both these trams were free, basically horizontal elevators. I spotted another connecting two buildings of the CircusCircus complex but it was closed and not to be restarted according to a CircusCircus security guard. The picture included here is from the Treasure Island/Mirage trip.
