    Obvious: this is some kind of monocab or monorail that hangs from a truss-style guideway. There's no record of one at Toulouse. There are three decommissioned monorails in France. None are near Toulouse or look like this. Aerospatiale (Airbus) internal system for employees?

    That is quite fascinating. I never realized that the concept of a monorail dates back so far.

    How delightful to know they have a preserved section of track and locomotive at Listowel, Co. Kerry. The locomotive is a diesel powered replica (not steam) !
