Having finally taken some pictures to replace the renderings and sorted out my monorail folder, I have decided to "de-lurk" and post my monorail train mocs for your critical appraisal. My first train is a straight re-work of the Airport Shuttle (set 6399) train in blue - http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=263263 My second is a red bullet-type train which was an exercise in wedges and plane windows - http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=263301 My third is a freight train with removable containers, front and rear lights and a siren - http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=264776 (and was inspired by James Mathis work http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=1549) The freight train needs a way to load/unload - http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=264813 (a dock and warehouse will follow) All trains are 4 studs wide. The next projects are to add a centre car to the red bullet train http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=263303 with facing seats and 'tables' and to make a single chassis Airport Shuttle (again inspired by James' work) http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=263254 enjoy William
