The box look is out! Rounded corners give the new Okinawa
Hitachi trains a modern look.

Monorail builders had very narrow corridors to deal with in
Naha. Here's a station nearing completion.

Besides running down city streets, waterways are paralleled
as well.

Looking towards the Naha Airport, where the system terminates.
Some of the best ocean views from a monorail will be on the Naha
system when it opens in 2003.

As we approach the airport, the Naha Monorail OSMF is visible
(Operations Storage & Maintenance Facility).
