Chongqing Monorail Eight Car Trains
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 авг 2024
- The Chongqing Metro Line 3 has a mix of 6 and 8 car trains operating on it. All stations are long enough to accomodate 8 car trains however the platform screen doors would need to be changed to operate the longer trains on the entire route in the future.
I like that they've let/encouraged vines etc to grow on the concrete pillars
MD I love the vines growing on the pillars too! It creates very nice look of green and nature!
Yeah, it's great. The more green the better.
You're the man, Luke!
Those columns covered in greenery are absolutely beautiful. Love it!
5:30 That traffic is big death, good thing we are on the monorail! xD
Wow! The bridges are so tall!
I love it. This monorail done correctly.
感谢您的所有作品，您展示我们的城市非常美丽！再次欢迎！
thank you for this video， chongiqng is my hometown，i miss it so much。。。
Love the eight car trains - esp. the shots on the bridges. Nice shot of 2 trains passing a parked train. Great scenery - esp. the closing shot. Excellent video.
Thank You so much once again for this beautiful footage and all the information added. Great scenery of the cityscape. Chongqing is fantastic! I can't wait to get back there soon again to explore more!
Thanks for the comment!
I really enjoyed the design of alert light on the platform edge. @5:54
Love your shots from Chongqing, what a beautiful city. Hopefully we'll see Line 12 here once it's done!
If you can find an excuse to head to Chengdu, they're opening a new line soon too (Line 7 loop line), also a fantastic city.
Chongqing really seems like the prettiest of China's major cities
A very good review of the monorail! Congratulations - and thank you!
Nice to see the drivers using the Japanese safety system. Lovely video Luke thank you
Sheila Uy they point at dangers to show they are aware of them. Studies have shown it makes them significantly safer drivers.
The last shot and many others in this really fantastic short movie just represent to me to height of human capabilities and are true marvels of Human Infrastructure. Thank you for your effort and for sharing it! What I also love is that it seems that the neighbors living close to the tracks in the highness Apartment buildings aren't negatively affected by any noise.
Yes, I loved finding this pagoda on top of the hill for a birds eye view of the city and river! Chongqing is really an amazing city, one of my favorites in China! It's true about the lack of noise. You don't see them building huge sound walls by the monorail to keep noise in like they do for highways and elevated steel on steel metro trains.
What a sweet monorail 🤩
This is just fabulous. There is no reason why other cities in the west including here in America not consider using monorail technology instead of relegating it to an amusement park attraction. The Tokyo Monorail for instant is known for being one of the few transit systems to turn a profit having served billions of people. Can the New York City Subway say they turned a profit?
Nope
Nyc can’t build shit it’s a failed city with failed leaders and the country is just above a failed state
Oh, do you know how many people are in Tokyo there’s no city like that in the US
@spikedpsycho Monorails like subways and other metro systems can be built for different sizes and needs. To my knowledge the Chongqing Monorail was built to accommodate traditional heavy rail passenger loads.
4:08 great shot ;)
6:45
beautiful shot
Thank you, I tried a few times to get that shot smoothly and with trains in it.
you did a great job man
We were promised amonorail in Seattle in the early 1960's, we still have the same half mile of track they started with and nothing else.
Chongqing metro line 2 is the only maglev monorail in the world.CRRC has built two other medium speed maglev lines,one in Changsha,the red line in Beijing and is building 9 others in other cities.In 2014,Jiaotong ,China s oldest railroad school with government funding built and tested a small maglev train in a vacuum enclosure ay 1,000 km/hr.CRRC will build a larger maglev train between cities at a designed speed of 2,500 km/hr.
Chongqing metro line 2 isn't a maglev, it's just a monorail.
4:38 what a beautiful shot
Monorails rock!
So wonderful view of monorail of the city.
this is the only longest and largest monorail out in the world !!
thank you for uploading
Nice.
That ivy growing up those tall pylons looks great but it must be a pain to trim regularly once it gets to the top.
Chongqing is like a semi-tropical version of San Francisco
I say the same thing! All the hills remind me of SF!
哈哈，感谢上传，感谢分享。开心大重庆展现给大家。非常感谢，非常开心。重庆的确是一个即是古老又现代、时尚的大都市。发展不断的重庆引人瞩目，吸引着越来越多的人关注。关键是重庆人好客、热情和善良。从来不会排外的一个，又极有包容万物之心的大都市。欢迎大家到重庆看看。妙不可言的一个大都市。一个让人流连忘返的城市。已离开重庆几年了，想念重庆的一切。解放碑步行街、商圈等更会让你们惊奇不已，哈哈哈。打望重庆的美女就去重庆解放碑吧！重庆的各个区都有不同的特色和饮食，一个人生不要错过的大都市。

These are metro sized monorail
まるでエヴァンゲリオンじゃん！長い編成だとかっこいいな，，，，
When monorail wanted to be metro rail😂
Muito bonito, uma maneira inteligente de n/causar mais trânsito nas ruas da cidade, rápido e seguro, 👍.
Good idea covering the pillars in green ivy..
Engineering Genius
10/10
Well done China
3:39 there is a short circuit
Muy logrado las columnas de verde.
Así merito va a ser el de Bogotá!! The Bogota's elevated rail will be exactly like this!!
el de bogota será un metro, mas pesado, mas ruidoso y mas caro.
este es un monorriel
8 cars monorail? Wow
Are the cantilver beam with poles installed at both side of cross beam (at time 0.15 of the clip) for lightning protection?
Good question; it looks like that. I honestly didn’t really notice it or think about this before. Good eye!
thank you
How fast is this monorail going on average?
Thanks for your quick reply.
That is a nice average speed btw. That is a lot faster than a bus usually can ride in a urban environment.
stap0510 this is the top speed, not the average speed. The average speed is about 40 km an hour. This includes station dwell times, and slowing down for curves, etc.
Ooh, I see.
Thanks for explaining.
Now I wonder what the fastest monorail is.
may I know what camera are you using?
I use a Cannon G30 video camera and also my iPhone 6S+.
fascinating!
I wonder how safe it is
You have to wonder why Western countries haven't embraced monorail. It seems the perfect solution to road congestion.
Western countries are run by looters they don’t care about the people
Hermoso, impresionante aunque creo que un poco ruidoso.
6両編成でも長いと思うのに8両編成とは…モノレールにしては長いな…よほど需要性があるという証拠か…
new contract was just signed, all equipting cars on line3 (this monorail line) will be turned to 8両編成 within 3 years.

Oh, is that so! Thank you for telling me!
for sure,it was just published on CQ gov's official site. upgrading contract includes all stations and signal-control system. current passenger volume of this line is always around 1 million per day, pushes and squeezes as hell day and night on certain stations.
antiallsb
A million in one day! What? A tremendous number of people ride ... I guess the reason for 8-car formation if so.
Looks quite slow. How do the speeds compare to normal metro trains?
The speed of the monorail must be slower than that of the metro,but their speed should be around 60Km/h
🤘
SkyTrains are far better. Monorail is like a Light rail operating on a Small cross section. Far better to have a Light rail on a Rail Bridge.
Metrô de Chongqing com operação em monotrilho passando por prédios residenciais kkkkkk
Michell Rodrigo Da Silva A linha 2 passa pelo prédio, não por Liine 3.
Obrigado!
I hear those things are awfully loud.
I think you mean trains, this is a monorail these are really quiet, believe it or not one of these lines goes through a apartment building and the residents said it's no louder then a dishwasher
E essa fumaça branca é neblina ou poluição das indústria e comércio.
wow, which is the country?
china
China
4:08 what the heck is that car? 😅
Nevermind i saw a three wheeled one IRL
Unless they make these monorail trains to run at at least 90-100km/h capability (normal consistent speed of operation) it will never really become "rapid" transportation option.
Rember 90km/h is 50% faster than 60km/h. That could literally mean 30-60 minutes of time saved for commuters in a big city every single day!
Speed isn't that important when the stations are close together, but I definitely agree with you that the should have been faster. I'm really excited about the urban maglev systems being built. In China, they are testing faster urban maglev trains, capable of 160km/h which would be incredible! The guideway of maglev trains are slightly larger than monorail, but still much smaller than other elevated trains. (The Linimo maglev in Nagoya Japan currently runs at 100km/h.)
@@Luke_Starkenburg First time I'm hearing about a smaller maglev trains.
Should definitely look into that.
Yes, Luke. Speed does make things more versatile. Slower speed is fine for tourists. The important thing about public transportation and the determinant of its success is always about whether it's reliable especially the timetables (punctual) in which it operates.
Speed gives a system legroom for especially those who don't have the time like tourists to get from point a to point b either faster or cheaper. If it could be both that'd always come down to an even greater success.
Will look a bit more into maglev urban trains for the fun of it.
👍
Hallo Florian
Terrible polución.

Stupid ass. That’s not pollution, that’s fog
Yes, of course., China has a super clean air, zero pollution. LOL!!!
@@suzimurakami4675 The place with the most serious air pollution in China, I personally feel that it is the capital Beijing

All monorail have inefficient performance. They are expensive to tween rail systems. Speed and passenger transfer putting subway on top choices.
Ben Mak Monorail train is quieter when travelling and is good in compact city where buildings are closely knit.
Subways more expensive to build , , ,
Chongqing is mountainous city, the difference in latitude in between stops are pretty huge. Subway is good and all, but it is not practical for Chongqing.
