In 1958, while vacationing in Cologne, Germany, Walt Disney discovered a mode of transportation that travelled above on a steal beam: the monorail system. Walt immediately knew that he had to have a monorail in his newly-built theme park, Disneyland, so along with several engineers and imagineers, the smooth travelling Monorail was built in 1959 and journeyed through Fantasyland and Tomorrowland.

Theme Parkology is very proud to bring you a fantastic documentary of the Monorail with another spectacular interview with Disney legend and imagineer, Bob Gurr, who talks about designing the Monorail and the kidnapping of vice-president, Richard Nixon, aboard the Highway in the Sky.
