usually a railroad will take you through the ugly underbelly of a city, this takes you through the most beautiful areas, the Green Space above the river.
no it doesnt have to because it works perfectly fine for 118 years and its a historical technology wonder - also in its whole history there has been only one accident with 5 dead, because some maintenance worker was too dumb to remove some block from the track. :) also if youre talking about the wagons - they are replaced every roundabout 40 years and we are currently in a replacement phase.
Same ride, 22 years earlier (1993): ruclips.net/video/4_8u7t5q3m4/видео.html If you play them side-by-side (manually synching when the train leaves a station) you will notice the differences - like how most stations have been replaced.
Nice.. you should also try H-Bahn in Dortmund. Its almost the same, but its mainly for the students at the university there.. :) Great video as always... !
VERY, VERY cool train ride!!! Love this one. Looks like the train is flying! Ha ha! Hey, Kei is playing John Isner in the finals today in Washington, D.C. Go Kei!!! Beat John Isner, even though he is much taller than you. No problem!!! Go Kei!!! Best regards, Ted-san
Ted Smith Thank you very much, Ted-san!!! This is the oldest suspended monorail in the world, it is original. Yes, Kei goes to the final in this tournament. It is good for Kei to the US Open!!! Best.
Japan Train Viewing Well, that was certainly a unique ride! Let me tell you about something not unique: Kei wins the Citi Tennis Tournament!!! Very happy about that. Go Kei, win the upcoming US Open!!! Yeah!!! Best regards, Ted-san
Schönes Video. Aber rentabel kann das absolut nicht sein. Alleine die permanenten Wartungsarbeiten an den Trägern ... . Und das alles nur, um unten den Autos freie Fahrt zu ermöglichen. M. W. ist die Stadt Wuppertal pleite. Wer bezahlt das also alles ??? !!!
dottoreeff Öffentlicher Personennahverkehr ist nie(!) rentabel, nicht mal Busverkehr. Ließe man den Nahverkehr aber einfach wegfallen wären die gesellschaftlichen Kosten um ein vielfaches höher. Im konkreten Fall bräche der Verkehr in Wuppertal Vohwinkel z.B. komplett zusammen. Was unterscheidet die Wuppertaler Schwebebahn also dann z.B. von der Kölner U-Bahn? Welches von beiden das schönere technische Denkmal ist beantworte ich Ihnen ohne zu zögern. Was die Finanzierung des ÖPNV angeht, hilf Ihnen eine google-Suche flugs weiter.
+Japan Train Viewing dottoreef argued that he can't understand why that train is still being used, arguing that it the cost for maintenance etc. must be way too high. wuchtamsel made the point that public transportation is never profitable. but if the cities would get rid of it, there would be other huge costs due to the traffic in several parts of Wuppertal coming to a halt. he also argued that, this being said, there really isn't that much difference between the monorail and the subway trains in Cologne (from an economical standpoint). however, it's very clear which of these two is the more beautiful technical landmark/monument.
Etwas mehr Sachlichkeit wäre höflich: Andere Auffassungen als Blödsinn zu bezeichnen, ist aber wohl typisch fürs Internet. Die aufwendigen Stahlstützen einer Schwebebahn mit einer Straßenbahn zu vergleichen, spricht dagegen für sich !!!

my dream came true. hahaha didnt know such thing exists. Makes me wanna visit this place. Danke schön
Toll gemacht. 😊👍
Gefällt mir gut, dass die gesamte Fahrstrecke so gezeigt wird, wie sie ist.
I have added this video to the playlist 'long cab rides'. I have reviewed hundreds of cab ride videos and added the ones I think are the best.
Great ride. Always found this line fascinating. Thanks for the videos, as always. :)
***** Thanks! Enjoy my videos!
Tolles Video, tolle Erinnerungen da ich dort meine Ausbildung gemacht habe, Liebe Grüße, Japan Train Viewing:)
SPETACULAR !! I really LOVE it ! German is a great and special country too . Thank you so much .

Very good video and documentation about the beautiful Wuppertal monorail!
Thanks! Yes, Wuppertal is beautiful city with the great origin monorail!
I love this train! It's só cool. Congratulations for The amazing trio. Thanks for sharing The video.
*trio= trip
***** Thanks!
I think the elevated monorail is still a public transport option for populated valley areas.
It has of course to be upgraded to a 21 century level.

Thanks for the ride.

Yep. All stations as well as the whole track has been replaced. And now, to finish the full replacement, the wagons will be replaced too.
Totally ASMR
Nice.. you should also try H-Bahn in Dortmund. Its almost the same, but its mainly for the students at the university there.. :) Great video as always... !
Michal Bergseth Thanks! When I visit Dortmund again, I try to ride on H-Bahn, and watch the Kagawa's football game.
Super!!!!!!!

Funnily, by german law the Wuppertal Schwebebahn is a tram (as also all U-Bahn are in Germany) :D
川の上を走るのが面白いね

Wuchtamsel Sorry, I cannot understand German coversation...

so ein Blödsinn. eine Straßenbahn müsste auch unterhalten werden...somit müssten alle Städte pleite ...ach ja sind sie ja

Verschandelt die ganze Stadt!
Nein das tut sie nicht es ist nähmlich DIE Sehenswürdigkeit Wuppertals
