Really?!
As long as Riverstone Holdings, the company behind plans to build a multimillion-dollar Fiordland monorail doesn't receive any tax/ratepayer favours or corporate welfare - we say bring it on!
Hopefully the inevitable failure of this project won't be blamed on bureaucracy or hysterical environmentalism.
While I applaud any private company showing initiative, with dubious demand; the economics of this project if it ever gets off the ground appears to be a bit thin. Maybe economic success of this project is dependent upon low initial capital costs by using unwanted equipment from Sydney...or maybe even Springfield:
