Hahaha! That's kinda awesome that they're available for private use!

Aah, it's not for me. It's more of a Shelbyville idea.

I wonder if it's humanely possible to discuss monorails these days without someone referencing that episode.

$3k is pretty damn good. Probably get stung by transportation costs though. Would make a cool meeting room.

No. It's really not. I fear that the current generation of twenty-somethings like myself won't be compatible with our children, as they will not understand the nuances of Simpsons quotes. You needn't look further than the fact that both I and Slenderman have Simpsons display pictures to see the effect that show has had on this generation.

$3k is awesome in the grand scheme of things. When you made reference of a meeting room, it reminded me of the old train carriage that they used to have/may still have at McDonald's/Hungry Jacks at Salisbury. That shit was the bomb when I was 6.

So it won't be a genuine bonafide electrified six car monorail in someone's backyard?

Oh Shuz.

Reminds me of the private collector who had the train from Dazzeland in his backyard...

No, because Main street's still all cracked and broken!

Sorry Hooligan, but the mob has spoken!
