Wuppertal Schwebebahn in Postcards
another Monorail Society Exclusive!

In honor of the one-hundreth anniversary of the Schwebebahn in Wuppertal, Germany, we bring you
four pages of fantastic postcard images. They reflect a changing world around the system,
yet the reliable old monorail continues to serve the citizens of Wuppertal.
Congratulations engineer Eugen Langen, your invention was a success!
