Wow! How could this happen? The citizenry of Wuppertal should all be happy. It has the oldest operating overhead monorail system in the world!
Really, it is a cool looking turn of the 20th Century cast iron and steel structure running up a river in the middle of town. It was the inspiration for Disney’s monorail. There are some decent photos on the web. Suppose all of this was wasted on the perp.
“...During World War II, about 40% of buildings in the city were destroyed by Allied bombing...”
Perhaps most of it should be called mid-20th century?
