Monorail 1:200

Monorail 1:200 scale

This is the first model I have built or designed, so far so good.
Track is finished you can see a cross section in the last pic.

Interesting model

Is there going to be a train to go on the rail?

The train is on the way, I’m designing then building the parts as I go.
The cross section in last photo shows the eventual articulation part that will be between the cars.

Hi Timgo,
that's an interesting idea. Do you have a real monorail as example or will it be a fantasy construction?

Greetings
Dieter

Having lived down the street from Disneyland for many years, that's looking like home. At one time there was a plan to build a monorail from downtown Anaheim to connect with the Disneyland one. Will follow your thread with interest.
