After reading this, I have noticed that a single height monorail will end up
being about 5 bricks to short for my town! I figured I'd need a little
because of the SFSC, but my 8-wide Hi-cube box car makes up another 3 studs
in height! Thanks SO much for posting about this now, before I got too far
into the building of the monorail to notice!
