I have picture of all new parts but I don't know when can I upload it.

I like to use imgbb.com because its fast to use and not censored in the UK. They also don't auto-delete images, or if they do its after a while by default

Hi everyone, this is something messy, exciting, and also worrying at the same time from RacingBrick

Science new parts

The part sizes are estimates. I didn't have time to measure them.

3.5x16 rack gear plate - dark purple and LBG

16x16 curved rack gear plate - white only

4x4x2 rack gear guide and gear mount - TR.clear only

2.5 and 1.5 2 stage pulley - black only (Last new release of any kind of pulley part which is not wheel is 1993 with micromotor pulley)

Technic brick 2x4 with 4 pinhole and 2 fixed friction pin - white only

Technic brick 6x5x1 with 4x4 cutout and 9 pinhole ㄷ shape - white only

Plate 1x4x2/3 with 1x2 cutout - coral only

Curved gear rack with this orientation of teeth? Sounds like some unorthodox (and unorthogonal) teeth geometries were used  to make it work. The train will then need precise positioning while going on that curve, which will probably add some stress and friction... 

Looking forward to see how the gear wheels meshes with it under different conditions and loads.

Those new track pieces are larger than I had originally thought, thanks for the pictures. I wonder if that curve is the same as train track? Looks like excellent monorail track.

If I remember correctly train track has a 40 stud radius, which is significantly more than the 15 or 16 stud radius of this curved gear rack.
