EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in March 2003 in County Kerry, Ireland, showcases the Listowel Monorail, also known as the Lartigue Monorail. This historic monorail, which linked Listowel and Ballybunion, is a significant piece of transport history and holds the distinction of being the world's first commercially viable monorail. Operating from 1888 until 1924, this engineering marvel transported passengers and goods between the two towns for over three decades. In this image, we see the partially reconstructed monorail track, a testament to the efforts made to preserve this important piece of history. The monorail, which was powered by a water-tube boiler, was a marvel of engineering in its time, and its unique design and innovative use of technology made it a popular attraction for visitors. The Listowel Monorail was the brainchild of French engineer, Adolphe Lartigue, who saw the potential for monorail transport in Ireland. The monorail's success paved the way for the development of monorail systems in other parts of the world. Although it has been over 90 years since the monorail ceased operation, its legacy lives on, inspiring new generations of engineers and transport enthusiasts. This photograph is a poignant reminder of the rich transport history of Ireland and the ingenuity of those who came before us. The Listowel Monorail may no longer be in operation, but its memory lives on, preserved for future generations to marvel at and learn from.
