thread_title:  Not monorails 

message: Vacationing in France, I stumbled upon a seemingly discommissioned monorail track, that seemed to have run from Orléans to Paris. I think it should be included on this page, but I cannot find any information on this track. Does anyone know more about this track? See http://picasaweb.google.com/ziggyziggyziggy/VakantieFrankrijkJuli2008/photo#5224848754781211794 for a picture and the location.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ziggyziggyziggy (talk • contribs) 16:25, 22 July 2008 (UTC)

message: : I have done an analysis of the list as at 03-Jul-21.  I split into systems with Group #1 either one station or open cabins Group #2 everything else (which are the passenger monorails and people movers).  The only anomaly by this criteria is "E-DA Theme Park Monorail" which seems should be in group #1.  
: I propose to split the table with the following headings:  Operating passenger monorails	48 entries,   Operating monorail rides	34 entries
: I think the novelty rides are worth listing since they represent most people's contact with monorails.  There are also references to many of these systems on the pages about the location where they are located.
: Finally I think the "Operating passenger monorails" should be sorted by length.  I can't see any Wikipedia rule that the default sort has to be by country.  If someone wants that they can click on the heading.  However for someone interested in a list of operating monorails the length of systems is a good measure of its significance.
: If there are no objections I will do this at the end of July 2021

message: Isn't it a monorail system that connects the main terminal at Orlando Int'l Airport to the gate terminals?  I thought it was one, but I won't add it until confirmed.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.173.72.201 (talk) 11:38, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

message: If different monorails are of different types (straddle, trough or suspended) with different dimensions of the supports including location of power supplies, then there will be a kind of break of gauge between them, and hence they will be of different gauges.     Tabletop (talk) 08:33, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: AFAIK there are no incompatible, overlapping monorail systems anywhere in the world.  Ofuna Station, served by two different monorails (one straddle, one suspended), probably came close, but they never operated simultaneously. Jpatokal (talk) 12:09, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Gauge 

message: Why is the article separated into public transit and non-public monorails arbitrarily and without detail or explanation? Shouldn't we just have a complete list?
Also, the list of "operational monorails" contains many that are not operational.

message: At this time, only 18% of the Operational Monorails have any Notes. It seems that only the relatively unimportant monorails have substantial notes. I would like to remove the Notes column to improve the readability of the whole table.
Info from Notes should be moved to the monorail's article (linked from its Name). Some monorails don't have a full article, so we'll need to make new articles for them. When all info from the Notes column has been duplicated, we can delete it! Nialsh (talk) 21:14, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
