The Ueno Zoo Monorail Line (東京都交通局上野懸垂線 Tōkyō-to Kōtsū-kyoku Ueno Kensui-sen) is a 0.3 km long suspended railway operated by the Tokyo Metropolitan Bureau of Transportation (Toei). It lies within the Ueno Zoo in Taitō Tokyo Japan. The monorail is similar to the Schwebebahn Wuppertal but has rubber tires rather than steel wheels. Many of the parts manufactured for the monorail were off-the-shelf.
