Has the monorail started service? Someone changed the article to say rail service started in 2005? Nfitz 05:27, 15 December 2005 (UTC)
Operation started June or July 2006. Cable Liner Shuttle - not to be confused with a monorail.
"A cable-driven APM is the most environmentally responsible solution for transportation in high density applications."
It is certainly an opinion. Not sure that it's a "Fact". — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.200.4.237 ( talk) 16:12, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
Several URLs bare urls. Please people, never use bare urls. I changed all but one of these to populated {{ cite}} templates. The one I didn't change didn't support the paragraph where it was cited.
I found many of the references didn't support the sentences or paragraphs where they were placed, so I added some {{ cn}}.
A new reference I found said that the rolling stock cost $56,000,000 and the tracks and stations cost $150,000,000. The article currently says the whole system cost $56,000,000.
I suspect that if the Blue 22 system is a success it will overwhelm this system's 2000 pppd capacity. The goal of the blue 22 system is to get airline passengers from downtown to the airport in 22 minutes. The people-mover, as currently constructed, could almost double this. The first time I took it was a Saturday, around noon, and the second car didn't start up until 1pm. The article says the maximum wait for a train was 8 minutes? It seemed longer. I'll bet it will seem incredibly long if you are late boarding your flight. The train itself seems quite slow. And then there is the incredibly bad design of placing the stations up a couple of escalators, and a considerable walk for the arrivals and departure lounges.
Even if the cable car technology were replaced by a faster technology I suspect the tight curves would keep the speed down to a crawl.
I plan to keep my eyes peeled for RS that address these issues. Geo Swan ( talk) 05:13, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
I am sure the bulleted list is accurate, and made sense to whoever contributed it. But I find it opaque. I think it has something to do with the layout of the wheels -- but what? Geo Swan ( talk) 05:23, 13 February 2013 (UTC)
Geo Swan brought up this issue in the section of this talk page titled "References were a mess". Geo Swan provided the following discussion on this issue:
I did not see what source had the cost listed as $150,000,000, but if there is a source, then I agree with changing the amount as the $56,000,000 is not sourced. The source provided for the entire table I have not been able to access. User226 ( talk) 22:37, 12 June 2013 (UTC)

The result of the move request was: move uncontroversial ( closed by page mover). feminist ( talk) 14:56, 13 February 2018 (UTC)
LINK Train →
Link Train – As per
MOS:TM, "titles should follow standard English text formatting and capitalization". In this case, LINK is not an acronym so full capitalization is inappropriate. A quick search shows that many sources refer to it as "Link Train" anyways.

Link Train → Terminal Link – "Terminal Link" is the name used by Pearson Airport, and secondary sources like Via Rail and MiWay. "Link Train" does not appear to be the common name. 162 etc. ( talk) 04:42, 15 April 2022 (UTC)
