The 2 mile long Monorail opened with the park in 1973. There was an additional charge of 75¢ to ride the monorail in 1973 but it was included with admission in 1974 and thereafter. There was talk in 1973 of building a Disney-type hotel for the monorail (Carolina Center) but those plans never materialized. The ride was dismantled at the end of the 1994 season and bought by Preferred Vacations who planned to reassemble the ride in the resort city of Acapulco, Mexico. For some reason the monorail has not been reassembled and it may still be in storage, some 14 years later.
