Development of the ALWEG Monorail from the Beginning to the Present

Monorail is a train that uses a single rail line that is different from conventional trains that we often see today. There are many advantages that can be obtained if a country builds a monorail in its country. In addition to being able to unravel monorail congestion it also does not take up large enough land, because monorail itself is usually is on the ground.

Development of the ALWEG Monorail from the Beginning to the Present

The monorail developed by ALWEG is one of the most widely used by various countries, besides having a good quality development and system ALWEG is also known as one of the most prominent monorail train inventors in the world.

Alweg itself stands in a suburban country in Germany, through the idea of ​​Alweg perfected by a Japanese company called Hitachi, so that currently all manufacturing and workmanship is in the country of Japan.

This type of Alweg monorail itself is in the form of a Straddle-beam, where the operating monorail is above the railroad track, the Alweg monorail track itself is built using concrete or steel that has been coated with rubber so that the robustness and strength of the alweg monorail need not be doubted.

When first introducing the alor monorail train did not get great interest because the casing or design of the train is less attractive, this is because there are large wheels in the middle of the train so that makes the area inside the train becomes small, but with the development of time they continue to innovate so as to make Monorail is currently a struggle for countries in the world.

Until finally they proved themselves to first build the largest monorail in the world, namely in Japan by building Tokyo Monorail which is currently the center of world attention, in the 70s they had succeeded in making such a sophisticated and powerful train.

And of course they prove that monorail is not just a theory but can be real manifested so that it can be useful for world life as a means of public transportation that is very convenient and certainly safe.

Until now the Tokyo monorail still stands well, there is nothing to worry about in the development of this Alweg monorail.
