> The only truly monorail steam engine in the world to be at home in Oswestry. I seem to recall that somebody built a replica of the "A" Frame monorail steam locomotive. I know I remember a live steam version, but I think I recall somebody built a full scale or close to it, version as well? Of course since it uses the A Frame system, maybe they're not considering it to be a monorail? |

Found it... Turns out I was right (and wrong...) ;) Full size replica (Right!) steam outline but diesel powered (wrong!) http://www.lartiguemonorail.com/ |

Does this count as a monorail? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dpmOsCTfBoc&NR=1 |
