Seattle Monorail Project, Seattle
This is a promotional video that was produced for the Seattle Monorail Project. The SMP was enacted and reaffirmed by three separate referendums but, because of financial problems and a lack of official support, it was canceled after a fourth referendum. I had NO part in the production of this video. The footage in this video is copyright The Monorail Society and posted with permission. www.monorails.org

I wish they had these on bart, I hear they are soundless?
@21Laser – I would have classified the Wuppertal as an underhung railway system rather than a true monorail. It actually has rails either side of the coach hangers.
Here in Sao Paulo we are building two lines of monorail, pioner in South America!
i think someday Seattle will be the second greatest American city (after New york)
monorails are nothing but snail versions of roller coasters. LOL
@krozareq I always wanted to be a Disney Monorail operator!!! So funny such a brilliant idea is used in an amusement park!! Brilliant post too, I Totally agree with you!
Caltrain2, thanks for letting me know.
@plogan721 its costs $ 1m per mile to build the beam and each train cost $5-6m each
How much does a Monorail costs to expand it? you would think that WDW would have expand it to the other parks by now (disney Studios, Animal Kingdom, Downtown Disney, and the Water Parks)
Nothing ages quicker that yesterdays vision of tomorrow………….
Space age Kennedy visions are still present to the current trends.
Dear All,
I have some questions about psychology:
(1) Why do we love space architecture?
(2) Why do we like to travel by space-age transportation system?
(3) Will travelling be more exciting if future vehicles are floating in the air? and Why?
THANK YOU IN ADVANCE for your creative ideas and brainstorm!!!
Sorry, Wuppertal, Germany beat it by 60 years or so.
I live in seattle, the monorail is garbage. It doesn’t go anywhere. just back and forth from seattle center to westlake.
when i was ther the monorail was broken *sniff* *sniff*
Any city that wants tourism should get the Bombraider monorails. Even people that have never been to WDW still recognize them.
yah it was disneyland’s
All I know is when I went to Seattle all the broshures and shit were braging about seattles oldest monorail system.
i thought it was disneyland’s monorail that opened in 1959
von roll and sdi
Seattle Washington was the first city to have a fully operational public Monorail System .
The Disney World and Las Vegas trains are Bombardier, most of the other monorails shown were made by Hitachi. Not sure about the Australian and New Jersey systems.
these Monorail are all built by Bombardier and Shinkansen right?
the regular Monorail has a Wheels that stabilize it, the Maglev can be a flat madnetic railway or a Monorail tracks with Magnets that stablelize instead of wheels like the other Monorail, for example Shanghi China has a Maglev works like a monorail accept it runs on Magnets so Shanghi has the world fastest Monorail in th world.
and maglev dont have a motor itself
@KillerOrAssassin97 I dont care about you
@azrial4421 Lol no your the retard
@thinvana I dont care about you.
@azrial4421 OK, explain how I’m a hypocrite. I’m not offended by what you said, I’m just telling you you’re wrong. Also I see your comments been removed.
@thinvana Haha you blind hypocrite. Offended? haha dumbass…hang yourself idiot we have enough dumb asses in this world.
@thinvana Haha you blind hypocrite. Offended? haha dumbass…hang yourself idiot we have enough dumbasses in this world.
@azrial4421 People like you are retards and easily offended. He was making a joke about the song being depressing, not making fun of Elliotts death. Oh and I’m sure you’ve made jokes about touchy subjects in your life, I hope you fucking fall from your ivory tower. /Fuck you
@dpowanator thats what you think
Don’t go the same way. Seek help. A crying shame to lose such a talent. Reach out. It’s just a phase you got to get through. Noone said it would be easy. Fight.
I like the qotsa studio version of this song more than elliott’s, but THIS is actually the best version of the song at all.
@KillerOrAssassin97 no it doesn’t. qotsa are my second favorite band next to zeppelin. but elliott’s version is better.
QOTSA cover takes this song to a new level of awesomeness
he was amazing. hopefully he’s happier and in a better place. r.i.p.
Exist somewhere DVD torrent of this show ?
@kurtisblow3000 That’s the best idea I’ve heard in a while..
@marcwnelson you didnt get it i said he had killed him self with booze cause it destroyed his life
He didn’t kill himself with booze… He stabbed himself in the heart.. twice.
@QOTSAPT life is what you make it, depression makes it that way
This is one my favorite songs. The lyrics are so pissed and cynical with a hint of remorse for even opening up in the first place. That’s what I get form it. I feel like that all the time. I’ve never seen this version. Its pretty awesome.
“Fake concern says ‘What’s the matter, man?’ and you think I oughtta shake your motherfucking hand.” There is more anger put into those words than anything… I get that in my head a lot.
killing yourself with booze is weak its not that addictive hes a writer and singer hes life must not be that bad that he kills him self with booze
yes, but Im pretty sure he was an alcoholic first. I’m an addict but definitely an alcoholic as well
Just to straighten out the confusion -Smith was a Heroin and crack addict-not an alcoholic
..and what a performance he gave here to this song!
every word sung oozes such emotion. such a powerful song.
“don’t be cross/this sick i want” is haunting.
this is a man who makes every other musician seem soulless.
