Bombardier Monorails

The Bombardier Corporation maintains a website but only the M-111 monorail system is described there. The company has built several monorails in the past and is currently installing a system in Jacksonville, Florida . It may be that their other monorail products will be included at their website at a later time.

Bombardier's M-VI monorail technology is currently in use at Walt Disney World in Florida. It was installed in 1989-90 and carries up to 200,000 passengers per day. It is the most heavily traveled passenger monorail in the world. A more robust (heavy duty) version of the M-VI has been developed for urban applications, but none have been installed anywhere in the world. It can be operated as a fully automated, driverless system.
