This article is about the Disney Resort Line, a monorail line at the Tokyo Disney Resort. For the lines at other Disney Resorts, see
Disney monorail.
The Disney Resort Line (ディズニーリゾートライン, Dizunī Rizōto Rain?), officially called -sen (ディズニーリゾートライン線?, "Disney Resort Line Line"), is an automated monorail that links Maihama Station and Tokyo Disney Resort. The system is operated by Maihama Resort Line Co., Ltd. (舞浜リゾートライン, Maihama Rizōto Rain?), the subsidiary of Oriental Land Co., Ltd. that operates the resort.
Legally speaking, the line is built as a "railway", just like ordinary rapid transits or commuter rail lines. As such, season tickets are available, and Pasmo and Suica IC cards can also be used on this line.[1]
In reality, however, the line mostly functions as the gateway attraction of the Disney Resort. All the stations are inside the private property of Oriental Land, preventing unrelated advertisements that can distract the resort's view.
[edit] Stations
Trains on the loop line travel in one direction only. All trains stop at all stations.
