They are not quieter or smoother than rubber tire metros or any of the European LRTs which are so quiet they require a chime to warn pedestrians.
The Disney monorail looks great meandering through vast tracks of parkland in sunny Florida or California, but elevation is a drawback in narrow corridors in Northern latitudes such as Seattle.
