That's Incredible and then some! The only roller coaster I have ever seen made of Lego is the one built by David Mercil. He used a different method for the tracks though. It never accured to me to use train tracks. (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.build)

(...) Glad you liked it. :) The up and down curves are 4.5V track layed on its edge so that the normal tops of two rails face each other. When you use curved track, the sides are now the tops and are now curved. 4.5V track has an advantage over 9V (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.build)

I think my dragon is going to be too big to effectively use the cape idea. The capes would probably make good contour feathers or large scales, but I'm not crazy enough to try that.
