海外「日本の移動と娯楽が融合したクールな乗り物」

After crossing the peak and getting off a little, I took a picture of the structure that turned around the curve.

To raise the difference between suspension type and straddling type, the suspension type has a strong sense of swinging outward like a pendulum due to centrifugal force, while the straddling type does not tilt a lot even if it is a curve.

In the photo, you can see that the second car and the third car are swinging out of the curve due to the level difference in the connection part. Since all rail frames appear vertical, it is probably a structure that allows inclination in the play of the suspended part. Shonan Monorail Station is adjacent to R Ofuna Station.

I’m no longer surprised by the suspension system, but it’s refreshing that it’s a single line.

The head end platform with a bar wire is good and nice.

“There is no structure equivalent to a “”car stop”” on the floor, so it is very clear.”

Because of the same system, the structure of the vehicle, such as the location of the coupler, is similar to that of the Chiba City Monorail.

There is an exchange at the first Fujimicho station after leaving the shuttle station.

It’s quite thrilling to say that the upper and lower lines are entering at the same time at this distance.

The next Shonan Machiya station has no replacement facilities, and the platform has a simple one-plane, one-line structure.

It’s close to 600 meters between here and the next Shonan Fukasawa, so I’ll try walking.

I started walking and went uphill for a while. It passes through the curve near the peak at a considerable speed.

This is the nearest place to Mitsubishi Electric’s office, which developed the suspension system. There was a building along the line with the Mitsubishi mark.

Mitsubishi apparently wanted to promote it to various places by constructing suspension monorails here, where conditions are severe. The result is only in Chiba at the moment, but…

Another characteristic of Shonan Monorail is the ground signal.

I arrived at Shonan Fukasawa Station. This station is interchangeable on the island-style one-plane two-track line.

The floor under the platform is built to say, “You can run the monorail without it, but you’ll be in trouble if you fall from the platform to the road.”

The points move each time you replace them, but please compare the structure with the picture above.

This place used to be adjacent to JR’s car factory, and it seems that redevelopment of the site is planned. A circus hut was built during the visit.

Shonan Monorail introduced an IC card about a year ago. The PASMO camp supports cross-use across the country.

“There was a simple ticket gate at the bottom of the stairs and the entrance (on the platform), so I also encountered a person who came down asking the station staff, “”Where should I touch?””” It may be a congestion control arrangement, but it would be better if we could see each other in a position where we could see each other.

On the right side, there is a departure signal of two lights.

It’s one more run from here towards Enoshima.

There is a steep slope and a curve, and there is a tunnel, so you can enjoy it more like an attraction than a vehicle.

…No, it was an important means of transportation for the local people. I’m sorry.
