Monorails - KumaChan - 02-07-2015
Hi Guys,
What is your opinion on monorails? Been think about buying an "Under" model off Jauce.
RE: Monorails - sunhuntin - 02-07-2015
i have one "under", with the d51 time station.
i like it well enough, though it has bad memories attached. it arrived the same weekend my blackie cat got sick and died. i was studying it before we realised he was really sick and not just off color. i feel guilty that i was so wrapped up in it that i didnt notice how sore he was.
ive had it at one show, and the kids werent sure what to make of it, several told me it was upside down. havent shown it since as just havent had the chance, and again, the memories.

I love the hanging monorail and you can see them in my last 2 videos. I like trhe blue, yellow and red ones as they more detailed. I looked into these a lot and there are many videos on YouTube to help you as you probably already viewed. I would like to add some lights to mine as a mod. There is even a video on YouTube of someone who swapped out a motor with a Tamiya and it is fast.
Originally I wanted to have an over rail monorail set on top of the hanger but decided against it after watching tons of videos of them. Really like the Disney ones with their 3 cars. I like the look of the more recent releases of a non-Disney ones but they all seem to wobble too much, side to side, for my tastes and just didn't seem right. I wish they would come up with a design to stop that and make them two speed as they are also quite slow which I think exacerbates the wobble. If you decide to get one let us know which one.

Thanks

Action Chugger,
Very cool. I'll guess I'll buy one, but they are a little pricey.
RE: Monorails - Super - 02-07-2015
Ahem....small collection?

It's just a wee collection super. I'm sure one of us here has as many monorails as they do regular ones
