Wait for the switch! In southwest China's Chongqing, the monorail changes tracks by moving the track itself. A roughly 120-tonne section of track slides 4.25 meters into position, completing the switch in less than 30 seconds. The unusual mechanism is part of a monorail network built to navigate Chongqing's mountainous terrain, steep slopes and rivers. The video went viral again during China's National Day holiday.
