Back to the future for Auckland


This was actually created by artist Bernard Roundhill in 1956 and featured as a centre page in a booklet entitled A History of Transport produced by building products firm Winstone Ltd that year. This was his prediction of what Auckland transport would look like in 2000. Bubble shapes were obviously en vogue then.

The Schwebebahn is a novel idea, but inferior from most aspects to the monorail.
