Instead a of piece LA history, today’s photo is a piece “LA history that never was.” After completing the monorail system around Disneyland in 1955, the ALWEG Company approached the City of Los Angeles to propose a monorail system for urban commuters. It was reported that ALWEG estimated five cents per fare would finance the deal. The proposal was voted down. Well, obviously it was an unworkable plan because I’m sure nobody on the city council had any connection with any of the car companies . . . #sarcasm #eyerolling
