the elevated railway has been gliding through wuppertal since 1901. then as now, it is an innovative means of transport, not least because it is separated from the road. there are wonderful views of the railway everywhere in the city as it winds its way through the valley of the wupper or directly above it.
seit 1901 schwebt sie durch wuppertal, die hochbahn. damals wie heute ein innovatives verkehrsmittel auch durch die trennung von der straße. überall in der stadt bieten sich wunderbare einblicke auf die bahn, die sich im stadtgebiet durch das tal der wupper beziehungsweise direkt über ihr windet.
[simple video description: a person dances in a smooth, modern style while in a Double Dutch jump rope. Many times, their dance moves carry them over the rope without looking like they are leaving the ground, like sliding the feet up and over as the rope passes. The rope never catches on the dancer nor falters until they leave. A hip hop song play in the background. End VD.]
