Shonan Monorail Cab View Full Ride

I decided to use footage from a while back that I used for a time-lapse video. This time, I will show the video in real time with natural audio. New, recently shot video is coming soon.

this is totally my ASMR just floating along the Japanese countryside in a suspended monorail train car.....BLISS

[@DJAYPAZ]

Riding it is amazing. There is a small window in the floor so you can look straight down if you want. It’s a bit like flying above the traffic. Great views too.

[@josephkarl2061]

Oi you! Get back to making clever comments on HIGNFY videos 😁😂 Absolutely agree with you. This looks such a peaceful way to travel about the place 😀

[@LucidFL]

This is countryside to you???

[@auxiliarypowerunit]

Fun fact: the road that the monorail mainly runs over actually used to be land for a proposed train line--that's why it's (relatively) straightforward and wide.

[@auxiliarypowerunit]

Also used to be a testing center for the Imperial Japanese Army's tanks.

[@DudeFrom1972]

I don't understand why this isn't more common in cities around the world where the streets are narrow and terrain isn't level. I actually think that a suspended monorail can supersede a tram in many places due to the many aspects during construction like for example whether the roadbed and the utilities beneath it can withstand the weight of a tram and then there is the million dollar question: why would anyone wish to mix public transportation with common traffic as it only adds to the congestion on the streets.

[@Luke_Starkenburg]

I love public transportation that is completely grade separated. No waiting for or adding to traffic. It's also safer as there is no chance of collisions with cars or pedestrians.

[@NationalistsRuinAmerica]

@@Luke_Starkenburg Well, the goal of public transit should be in the end to get more people off the roads. I don't really like it when public transit has to respect the cars as prime traffic element, even though cars are less efficient in almost every category.

[@qjtvaddict]

@@NationalistsRuinAmerica trains that run in streets with cars are not efficient and that defeats the purpose it makes both driving and public transport inefficient so everyone loses

[@NationalistsRuinAmerica]

@@qjtvaddict but making space for cars is always inefficient in the long run. Just banning car traffic on a few roads and giving it to a tram is best. Sure, suspended railways are an option, but they are more expensive in construction and maintenance, and once we get rid of cars completely, the streets below will be empty and unused.

[@Qichar]

This seems to be the exact suspended monorail featured at the beginning of the anime "Just Because."

[@fixpacifica]

I rode this in April, 2023. I was trying to get from the vicinity of Enoshima Island back to Yokohama, and was surprised when Google Maps directed me to take it rather than the Enodan. Had no idea it was one of those hanging monorails until I got to the station. Kind of a bumpy ride, but still a lot more interesting than a train or streetcar.

[@Luke_Starkenburg]

It’s interesting that when I rode the Chiba Monorail, it is the same technology except that it’s newer and is double track. The Chiba monorail is quieter and smoother.

[@HansDunkelberg1]

I'm amazed by the consistency with which the traditional Japanese architecture, especially concerning its interior design with those elegant paper walls, until today lives on even in the seemingly most mundane buildings of the country. It's everywhere that light, manifoldly varied combination of thinly-framed rectangles of all sizes. As a European born in 1975 long before KZbin has enabled glimpses into such a far cosmos like here offered, I now finally can embed my perception of Japanese _cars_ within such a broader picture.
