ABSTRACT:
A strong, lightweight monorail guideway assembly for carrying a monorail train vehicle in transport having selectively joined load-bearing rails which are structurally reinforceable on site in relation to support columns holding the track in suspension. Variations in stresses placed on the track are accommodated by the track structure while minimizing overall weight and material consumption. An easily accessible hollow interior provides protection and serviceability for electrical conduit placed therein. A conduit immediately adjacent the running surface may be selectively heated to inhibit icing.
