Calling a schwebebahn a monorail is quality trolling.

1 0 Reply"Monorail" is literally what this particular system is named in Japanese katakana.
Other suspension track systems in Japan also have "monorail" in their names.
According to Wikipedia, suspension railway systems are a subset of monorail systems. The Schwebebahn systems in Germany were the first of these.

Its the one you take if you go for a day trip from Tokyo to Enoshima, which is a really beautiful island with a dragon cave and a tower you can climb for a view. Highly recommended!
