You can design your Moonbase with monorail in mind, and if you are planning
on coming to the NWBrickCon there will be enough monorail where it can be
added to your Moonbase design. It's a way for you to create a cool
Moonbase/monorail system without owning any monorail. (note: you'll have to
leave the monorail in Seattle when you are done ;)
