Can the Las Vegas Monorail Survive Bankruptcy

The Las Vegas Monorail has struggled for much of its life. Now it's on life support. The company is in the bankruptcy court and set to cut 90 percent of the debt - the money it borrowed to build the line. It needs to be able to shed that debt to be in a position to raise another $12 million by 2019 to expand the system and do structural maintenance. So what is the future of the Las Vegas Monorail Company?
