Length of operation[edit]

I've included the link to Monorails in Japan since it's one of the very few English sources that mentions this and is mostly accurate, but it gets the dates and the claim of operating "for less than a year" wrong. The official Daiei press release confirms that the actual start (開業) and end (運行休止) dates were 5/1966 and 9/1967 respectively. Jpatokal (talk) 12:25, 1 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
