(...) Ok I've updated the file. Put in green plates where I thought it would be best. Also, I put a 4.5 volt cross track on the squares where special stuff is so it's easier to see.

I've uploaded a suggested monorail layout, file name "V-D0011R". I didn't touch the baseplates (yet), and they don't really make sense any more. As I see it, all the monorail track is at least raised by one tall support (10 bricks), and in places (...) (24 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.org.ca.vlc)
