    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) !

    A newspaper article says he was an "executive" in the Ground Transportation Division. It doesn't say if he has an Ed.D., a Ph.d., or some other doctoral degree. Another clue about which John Beck is shown: he lived in Bonita when he worked at Rohr. He's quoted in a newspaper as claiming that his Rohr work ended about May, 1975.

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