Although I live in Europe, this absolutely blew my mind.
Was I dreaming? In an alternate universe? In the future? …Maybe I’m just naive, but … wow.
Okay, let me back up a bit - I’d just arrived at the Düsseldorf airport, tired after a twelve hour flight. I’d be flying home from Düsseldorf in the morning. I was just getting out of the car, when-
I looked up.
My mouth dropped open.
What.
Are you ready for this?
AIR TRAINS.
This mindblowing tin can was casually cruising above the city. How had I never heard of this before? Imagine the view you have riding from this every day!
Here I was, riding dingy, depressing and old underground metros when I could’ve been getting around on this baby.
Sigh. Maybe in another life.
(I realize these are called suspension railways, but that’s just boring.)
