The Largest Monorail System in the World: Chongqing, China 2023 重庆单轨列车

The Chongqing Rail Transit is a unique transit system in China because of the geography of Chongqing being a densely-populated but mountainous city, with multiple river valleys. Two lines use heavy-monorail technology, leveraging the ability to negotiate steep grades and tight curves and rapid transit capacity. They are capable of transporting 32,000 passengers per hour per direction. However the busiest section of Line 3 reaches a peak passenger volume of 37,700 pphpd in 2019. At 98 km (61 mi), the system&two monorail lines form the longest monorail system in the world, with the 56.1 km (34.9 mi) Line 3 being the world&longest single monorail line even if the 11.0 km (6.8 mi) Konggang branch is excluded. The length and the capacity of its monorail network both also make it the world&busiest monorail system, with a total of 94 million and 250 million rides in 2015 on Line 2 and Line 3, respectively. The latter ridership statistic for Line 3 also makes it the world&busiest single monorail line. ~Wikipedia - Want to use my footage in your videos? Email me at and I can provide the raw files from this video (without the filmed by "Timothy Migliore") overlay for a fee. See the Places I Have Filmed in (and transit you can find on this channel) Filming these systems takes a lot of work: your support helps the channel grow with new videos from across the world and us having an awesome discussion and connecting with other transit enthusiasts across the globe. Thank you all for...
