  • My kids do remember the monorail. Thank you for your comment. I think it is fun to feel like you are really riding the monorail.....especially going through the tunnel and being next to the Clock of Nations when it is open! Too bad it is gone.

  • This is my own personal video. I was allowed to ride inside the monorail because I'm small.....usually parents were not allowed. The baby is my son who is now 19.

  • @TheVerdeCuervo Over Christmas 2011 the City of Rochester erected the Monorail and Santa's Mountain somewhere downtown for a couple weekends.

  • it looked so nice before they painted the crap on it the shine looks like new why did they paint it

  • @TheLadybugmommy If you have any photos, please feel free to join my website and submit them. Lately, it's been tanking and I am trying to think of how I can keep people visiting periodically. No problem. The Clock of Nations is still around, but the Monorail is still Missing In Action. Last I heard, it was going to be displayed as some type of an art sculpture at Artisan Works. Nobody over there wants to tell me anything. Originally, I was supposed to acquire the Monorail.

  • @TheLadybugmommy This is without a doubt the best Midtown footage (besides my own) that I have ever seen on YouTube. I've heard stories about parents getting on the Monorail with their children. Didn't think it was actually true though. Does your son remember Midtown at all? I'm 25 and I barely remember riding the Monorail in '88. I had pictures, but they mysteriously disappeared. Only one is still around.

  • Where on Earth did you find this footage!? It brings back a lot of memories! I last rode the Monorail in 1988.
