(...) Monorail motors, however, use battery. My monorail motors have been running strong since 1993 and 1996. As the battery is used up more, than power weakens, but when you put in a new battery, its back to full speed. No idea on the speed though. (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)

I have a couple of potential ideas. I'm assuming that it is ok to "modify" the table top, but you'd prefer not to mess up the LEGO sets. If you have a large flat piece (like a base plate with a building, trees, or horses), then you can put screws in (...) (25 years ago, 10-Mar-00, to lugnet.town)
