Hanging train
No doubt this is one of the most curious cases of railway, also relatively unknown throughout the world. This train is called "Schwebebahn Wuppertal" and we can be found in the Rhineland, a State of Germany, being only urban railway hanging all over Europe.
Train with propellers
The train called "Schienenzeppelin" could reach 200 kilometers per hour, depending on the amount of cars that will be incorporated into the train. Even so, it was a dangerous system because when entering the stations people were exposed to this prop that could cause accidents with ease. This was not the only problem, the system did not allow the train to rise through the channels with certain inclination, because of this, in 1939 it was decided to destroy this train, as there was this time more efficient and profitable alternatives in terms of railways.
