When I found out about the Wuppertal suspended monorail, and that it was so near where I was visiting, I figured it would be a crime not to go for a ride. There are only a handful of them in operation in the world, and this one is the oldest electrical one. How old? How about 122 years old😀 That's pretty impressive, right?
It turns out the cost of the monorail ride is included in my train day pass, and since I had nothing else to do, I ended up riding the 13.3km ride two and and half tI message so I can see the view from both directions.
The suspended monorail is used by locals as their normal means of transport. However, due to it's unique nature, it's also a very popular tourist attraction for those visiting Wuppertal and nearby.
Come and join me on the ride!
