Wuppertal Schwebebahn |
 | | In the Köln/Düsseldorf/Essen district of North Rhine Westphalia (NRW), don't miss a ride on the Wuppertal Schwebebahn, or suspended railway. |
 | | Near the western end, past Barmen, in Elberfeld, the Schwebebahn veers away from the river, traveling over city streets. |
 | | Wuppertal has a connection with flying elephants, due to a 1950 incident involving a circus pachyderm named Tuffi, who was made to ride the Schwebebahn, but found the experience disagreeable. |
