Thinking about a monorail project

[evank]

I have my father's old Lionel trains (1940s) set up in my man cave. I am thinking about adding a Lego monorail. But instead of buying official tracks, I'm planning to use vintage technic beams (Expert Builder period), attaching a bunch of hinges and rack pieces, and it's off to the races. Has anyone else done this?

you have my attention my man. most people use the track system @Masao Hidakahas created. he uses basic bricks. also make shure to look into that thread: 

if you have any more questions feel free to ask them!

Thanks, I'll check it out!

I see now. Personally I like to build exclusively with Lego parts that were available during my childhood (1970s-1980s).

been a while bzt would work too. basic bricks have been available then as have technic axles and gears right?
