US Transit > Central > Las Vegas
Mandalay Bay/Luxor/Excalibur Tram

Las Vegas

This is a unique transit system serving the above mentioned hotels. It is a cable driven automated system. There are two trains on separate tracks. The inner (or west) track is the "local" train. It stops at all 4 stations (Excalibur has 2 stops). The outer (or east) is an express that only stops at the 2 terminal stations.

This system is unique in Las Vegas as it runs in front of the hotels, not behind them like the others, including the LV Monorail.
