??? That kiddie train is bad ass ! I live a few miles from the
Western Pacific Railroad Museum . They have @ 160 pieces of
engines & rolling stock , but everything there is a 2 track ,
no mono's here . Sounds like they have the cow to market all
figured out . I'm amazed at just how many people, chickens guys
with machine guns or the such they manage to fit on one motorcycle
in that part of the world . I think I may have seen a pic with a
guy & his cow on a motorcycle .
???
?? Thanks

On the subject of monorails, don't
forget the Patiala state railway
and Listowel & Ballybunion
.
On the latter, if you wanted to take a cow to market, you
put it in one side of a wagon, and 2 half size cows or big
calves the other side. On removing the big cow at its
destination, you moved one of the smaller ones to the other
side to achieve balance on the return "empty" journey. (It's
Ireland.)

I have a vintage Sperry gyroscope that was my dads along with the book
that came with it , I'm gonna have to dig out the book & play with the
unit for a while .
