Greetings-
I guess this is my informal return to the Lego community :)  I have a
question.  Does anyone know how to connect multiple monorail setups?  There is
the two cars, and then the motor, and that's it.  I would like to see a longer
monorail.  Is there a way to take the trucks off the bottom and attach them to
a different piece, so theoretically someone with a lot of trucks can make a
big monorail?  I want a long modular canister monorail for Zacktron.  Large
octagonal canisters (8 studs wide on the floor) can be lifted off of the cars
and rearranged inside to hold passengers or cargo.

Thanks!

PS - Look for Zacktron and the Webring completely refurbished in a few weeks!

(...) See the site of James Mathis for a three car monorail done in a very clever way with springs and the technic link. Coupling including multiple motors gets much harder since you have to do reversing quite carefully. This is an ideal application (...) (26 years ago, 22-Oct-98, to lugnet.trains)
