    I'll go with something probably too obvious: Disneyland Monorail is the only one that can take you out of the park.

    The Monorail isn't the odd one out either. Here's the list again, since we're on a new page (also not Alice):

    Rafts to Tom Sawyer Island
    Disneyland Railroad
    Alice in Wonderland
    Monorail
    Jungle Cruise

    Splash Mountain also fits the category

    Rafts to Tom Sawyer Island
    Disneyland Railroad

    Jungle Cruise

    Where and when??? Mulan ran both day and night. Electrical ran at night only, but at both WDW and Disneyland (and at both DLR parks). Oh, and in New York (a few floats once, I believe). Umm.......

    I'm going with Aladdin's Royal Caravan, then. It was a great parade (I was bussing tables on Main Street when it was running), but was more or less low-key by today's standards and seems the least likely to have been duplicated at both resorts.
