Cons:

1) Wont travel fast

2) Needs raised platforms to get on and off the train at every station, heavy capital costs

3) Noise pollution, having it in a urban area

4) Wont look attractive
 
I really like this idea very nice thanks for sharing this is what is needed in karachi when offcourse Pakistan stands back on its feet and has the funds for it .
 
The Sky bus wont be a reliable one as the Metro rail..earlier it was proposed for Kochi too but after conducting studies the project is abandoned and Metro rail is suggested :)
 
Not fast enough. Only advantage i can think of is the savings compared to a conventional metro. It also looks a bit weird and therefore attractive.
 
Was there in Goa during the test run.. Never looked safe...

Would have been a good alternative though..
I think BRT wouldve been a safer and better alternative. This looks outdated and I dont even want to think about how much money will be needed to maintain this. This train looks like its from the 60s russia
