I am actually a little less desperate because I found a stash of them and was able to complete my project. BTW I have a lot of slopes for sale (...)

| | The Tale of a Monorail
|
| On 11 Feb I bought a 6990 monorail on eBay. I was, for some reason I still don't quite understand, the only bidder, and I got it for $175 (which considering other monorail prices, I thought was a good deal). On Thursday last it arrived, having been (...) (26 years ago, 7-Mar-99, to lugnet.general)
