The Monorail Society is an all-volunteer organization founded to
foster more awareness and promote this unique method of transportation.
Monorails are NOT just for theme parks and zoos! Our aim is to
inform people of the many possible uses for them. Monorail systems
around the world carry hundreds of thousands of passengers safely
and efficiently to their destinations every day. If more monorails
were built, people would choose transit over the automobile in
greater numbers.
Efforts of The Monorail Society (TMS)
members have helped monorail gain more acceptance as an alternative
to conventional rail, buses and cars. Several monorail projects
in planning or under construction have benefited from the efforts
of TMS. Before TMS, there were no all-encompassing
information sources on monorail, either in print or online. For
this, we are very proud of our contribution to the transit world.
Founded in 1989, The Monorail Society
first published a quarterly pictorial, Monorail Newsletter. In
1998, the newsletter was replaced with a far stronger communication
tool...The Monorail Society Website. Explore
our website and learn more about monorails than anywhere else
on the Internet. We currently have over 500 pages of content for you, all for free and without any outside advertisements.
If you like what you see, please join us and help bring about more monorail transit systems. Becoming a member is easy and FREE, no strings attached. Join
