Now I see what you mean by station, thats a big one for sure.
Sure, I like the way you think.
The monorails don't have to be the highest level of any layout and I had thoughts on to do that with the overhead monorail. Weaving in and out, up and down. But not having the ability to use the slopes for this one put the kibosh to the idea. Plus the fact that you would need the space of two risers (6" more I think for hang mono's) to run the between two normal train rail lines. Add in to the fact that I am slowly re-doing, altering, changing the layout in a way that reduces the size and height to where eventually it will all be dis-assembled totally. The reason for this is that even though floor level layouts are great with the ability to go big and wide there is the cleanliness factor and the dreaded bane of the trains......dust. Being on the floor it collects dust and even though once in a while I go through the cumbersome ritual of trying to vacuum around everything its just too hard to do and over the few years it has taken to erect our layout the carpeting needs a thorough cleaning. My idea is then to get six or eight of the big party, folding tables and erect a layout similar to how Ucwepn built his. Maybe with underground and monorails spanning an opening between two table top arrangements. I think sight lines are going to be better on a table along with better abilities to make any videos.
Sorry, I droned on and on.
