It does look like Disney got its way here...
If I remember correctly, the preferred plan was to merely have WDW be one of the stops, but Disney threatened to not allow a WDW station unless they were the only stop.
Without a WDW station, it doesn't seem the line would have a prayer of generating the needed revenue.
One logisitical question... should the train actually be built, I certainly would consider using it instead of the shuttle services, but has there been any discussion on how luggage would work? Would we need to stand at a platform with all of our "stuff" (considerable for us as our stays are usually about 2 weeks, and we bring golf clubs), then shove it all on?
Maybe that type of detail hasn't even been looked at, but just curious.
Thanks...
