Unconventional Trains: Breaking the Rules with Style.

From suspended monorails to hanging monorails with glass floors, railway technology has evolved to conquer cities, mountains, deep mines, and some of the world's most extreme climates. Unusual railways like the Schwebebahn monorail in Germany, the Stoosbahn in Switzerland, and the Ferrobus in South America break the rules to reach places other trains can't roll. Meanwhile, the Katoomba Scenic Railway in Australia offers a hair-raising descent down sandstone cliffs and through epic rock formations and tunnels perched over a stunning rainforest landscape.
