    Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —Paul Janssen
   (...) Although I've already submitted my entry for your Top 10 (btw thanks for thinking my previous entries were (very) funny), I secretly, and very selfishly, hope that TLC will not re-release momorail. I've spend way too much money on monorail (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —Frank Filz
     (...) Ah, but if you're actually running your monorail, I would think that selfishly you would want it to come back into production so that you can continue to get replacements. Of course this is why I have purchased several extra motors... (I also (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.trains)
    
         Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —John P. Henderson
     (...) True. I will have to agree with Paul though. I know it is quite selfish, but I like thinking that three of the sets I have are worth so much more than I originally paid for them. I have two 6990s (one of which was free) and one 6399. I need to (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —John Neal
     (...) <snip> (...) All bets are off WRT to the "momorail" ;-), but as far as monorail goes, Brad Justus was asked point-blankedly what the chances were that TLC would rerelease the monorail, and his answer was 0%. All parts specs for the motor are (...) (21 years ago, 29-May-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
    
         Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —Stefan Garcia
      (...) Joining in here, I don't get why it's so hard for Lego to make a new monorail. Can't they just put together a new spur gear system (And give the cars real couplers while they're at it)? Doesn't seem like it'd be that hard. -Stefan- (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
    
         Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —Paul Janssen
      (...) Yeah, momorail is funny :). Anyway, the only thing they need to design is the track wheel. All other parts thy have, a 9V motor, a battery box, and technick gears. They'd have to make 1 part that is a regular technik gear, with attached the (...) (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
     
          Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —Chris Phillips
      (...) So it sounds like you're still building your monorail collection. Just think of how much moolah you'd save next year if they re-released a compatible monorail set. How soon were you planning to take advantage of that resale value anyway? My (...) (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
     
          Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —Paul Janssen
      (...) I know, I'm not selling (maybe a few stray pieces here and there), but I think I'll stop buying soon. I just like to think that when I ever indure hard times, I have something to fall back on. Of course, monorail would be about the last thing (...)

         Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —Tilman Sporkert
     (...) Brad (...) rerelease (...) lost, (...) ground up. Looking at the number of new sets that have come out recently containing customized eletronics and/or motors, I find this to be a pretty lame excuse. Many of these sets are one-of-a-kind. (...)

        Re: Top 10 List involving Monorail —Terry Prosper
   (...) Wow. This is selfish! I too am spending many hundreds of $ for my monorail sets, but I still hopw LEGO will come out with a monorail equivalent someday because I really like the products. I totally understand your despair of eventually see the (...) (21 years ago, 30-May-03, to lugnet.trains)
