How would you like to go from hanging out with Mickey Mouse in Anaheim Ca. to fine dining on the Las Vegas Strip in under two hours? According to the Las Vegas CBS 8 News, on Friday June 6, 2008, President Bush signed a bill that freed up $45 million for the project - the biggest financial boost in the project’s 20-year attempt at becoming reality.

Quick Tidbit

There is no word on where the approx. 300-mile-an-hour bullet train would exactly stop at Disneyland and Las Vegas. Downtown Disney seems like it would be a convenient stop on the Anaheim end.

Downtown Disney is the entertainment, retail, and dining hub of the Disneyland Resort in California.

The bullet train would become the first mag-lev train in the United States, well kind of, the approx. $9.2-billion MGM MIRAGE CityCenter mega-resort on Las Vegas Boulevard is currently building its own mag-lev “monorail”, in the form of a three-stop Automated People Mover. The APM will feature stops at Monte Carlo, the world-class The Crystals (retail and entertainment district), and Bellagio.

Is Las Vegas becoming the leader in sustainable travel and architecture?

A bullet train from Anaheim, California to Las Vegas, Nevada? The event would mark a tremendous boost to getting visitors to and from while freeing up traffic on Interstate 15 as well as several California freeways. Obviously, the train would be great for the environment, while eliminating the gasoline dependency of cars and airplanes.

With Sheldon Adelson’s Palazzo Resort Casino recently being named the world’s largest eco-friendly LEED-certified property, When it opens in 2009, MGM MIRAGE CityCenter is also expected to become either the largest, or one of the largest, LEED-certified properties in the world.
