The Seattle Center Monorail is the first full scale commercial monorail in the United States. Please visit website for further notice (Noted 9/04). Like the Space Needle, this train is a remnant of the 1962 World's Fair. Riding above ground, it takes passengers on a two-minute ride between two terminals: Westlake Center downtown and Seattle Center. Although short, the trip has nice views of Elliott Bay, downtown and the Capitol Hill area.

This elevated train from the World's Fair provides transportation to and from the Seattle Center in a flash.

Forget about zero to 60, how about a mile in 60 (really 90 seconds, but who's counting)? This 1960s technology is still up to speed
