Looks like an interesting engineering (and social) challenge, even with

Did the Almighty Rodent do something in this space, Bruce?
Certainly. Disney built the first monorail in daily service in the US
(still runs the largest system by daily boardings), was one of the first
Von Roll aerial tramway installations (later two), created the
"PeopleMover" concept with moving platform boarding, traveling theater
seating, OmniMovers(tm), and a dozen others.
But more importantly, I know a couple of former Imagineers who did some
of this work who are now independent and available as consultants or
designers.
I've done a bit of work and more than a bit of research in this field
myself, though it was focused on moving crowd management.
