Episode #237 - Monorails!



Overview: Joining me on today's podcast is Kim Pedersen, founder and president of the Monorail Society. Naturally, we're going to talk about the amazing machines that exist at DisneyLand and Disney World. We'll explore their history, and what we hope is their future! Its a fun talk about Disney, and so much more!


Notes:

What's Disney's first monorail? Its the Peter Pan ride!  

Here's the model I mention that shows the monorail going to Downtown Disney:

Monorails: Trains of the Future-Now Arriving (ISBN-13: 978-0986249488)
The book is available through the following locations:
Early reviews:
“The author has produced something wonderful here.” JH
“I can honestly say this book is well worth the price just for the pictures alone.” SE
“This is a masterpiece.  Every technical university should have one.” JK
“This is a book to own for any monorail or transportation enthusiast.: TS

Since publication in December the large 248-page hardbound book is already being used by monorailists and manufacturers to promote monorail for transit.  Monorails: Trains of the Future-Now Arriving is the definitive book on the topic and after only two months on the market, the color photo-rich book in the libraries of many railfans.  If you don’t have the book on your coffee table yet, it’s time to order it before it sells out!
