I have always wanted a monorail. sets at auction are quite pricey though.

However, given that I am not concerned about actually possessing one of the
boxed sets, just want to build a monorail, could I use this accessory set to
start building a monorail of my own invention?

Say buy a couple of track sets, use a 9volt battery box and some wheels, and
away we go.

What 'Special' bricks might I need that prevent me from building my own
monorail. Could I use a standard technics gear to 'grip' the rails teeth for
example?

regards
lawrence

(...) One thing you could get, I don't know what else you might need, but Mario Ferrari posted me a list of old service packs available from LEGO in Italy. One of them is 5040 Monorail 9v Motor for Space Track. (25 years ago, 18-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.trains)
