| - Not your Disney monorail.
This one runs up and down The Strip, between the MGM Grand and the Sahara. You'd think that's not so far, but after you realize that each block in Vegas is 1/2 mile, and walking between these two stations is 6 freaking miles, you'll want that air-conditioned comfort.
Each train is painted differently, after all, this is the entertainment capital of the world. If you get tired of gawking at the endless scenery, there are TVs on the trains advertising constantly. OK, sometimes it's even more fun to watch the other passengers, but I digress.
A ride is $5, 24 hours is $14. Go for the 24-hour ticket, you'll be glad you did. Take several cards with you, as the vending machines sometimes choke on the magnetic stripe coding. Hey, this is no casino, this is a railroad. They aren't going to suck money out of your DMV license. By the way, there is a Convention Center station.
