Can anybody lend a hand to Adelberto at [log in to unmask]
We have some coverage of this very stupid idea in World Streets (balanced reporting guaranteed) which you can pick up at http://worldstreets.wordpress.com/category/monorails/ (which includes a fine earlier piece by Adalberto summarizing the situation in Brazil). It's really amazing that this one will not die. (Though it is not hard to figure out why. And who.)
Thanks for helping out.

Dear friends,
Some Brazilian cities were approached by international consultants trying to sell monorails for the World Cup and Olympic Games. Most of these projects were already abandoned as costs have skyrocket with the developments of these projects. However, there are new Governors elected and around the country and some of them decided to study these possibilities again. New guys, new projects... I guess you all known that process...
Does anyone have technical information or papers dealing with financial data for monorails operational and maintenance?
Thank you very much,
Adalberto
