PIRATE SHIP FOR MONORAIL LAYOUT

Here is my latest addition to the Monorail layout. It's the Jolly Roger. Stephen put it together and I added the paint. The Monorail crosses it twice on it's trip above the Magic Kingdom. Along with the pirate ship there is a Mike fink keel boat and two submarines. Ariel the Mermaid sits on the rocks in the center. I am now looking for the Mark Twain river boat. My Train and Monorail room is my "Happiest Place On Earth"



I hope I have enough room for all the rides I want to add. It sure looks like a fun place.

New ride for my Disneyland Monorail layout.

I decided to make a Big Thunder Mountain Railroad. First I made the form out of foam rubber. I made sure that my Schuco Monorail would clear. I always cover my rail before using plaster or paints. I covered the foam with plaster of paris.

Dinosaurs at Thunder Mountain

Here I made the peaks of the weathered sandstone mountains out of plaster of paris. I dripped the plaster on to wood skewers. Can you see the Dinosaur bones exposed by the desert winds?

Finally I am working on my Monorail layout.

Here is my Thunder Mountain with my Monorail passing by. I made the train out of a plastic train that I had to cut down. I removed the car bodies and replaced them with ride cars made out of popsicle sticks.
