Rail-y good!



If anyone else has ever come up with as innovative a use for curved rails as this fantastic spaceship by Stuart Crawshaw - then I've yet to see it. The craft, part of the Neo-Classic Space March event, just oozes yumminess all round, from the beautiful engines to the main hull, and of course those awesome wings. Top marks!

Amazing design! I actually have a couple of rails myself... I didn't know they could be bent... hmm, interesting.

They aren't bent, they are moulded like that. Much like current rails have straight and curved variants, so did the old rail systems.

Oh right. Only with the old rails you had to have two parallel rails and a plate in between as opposed to today's all-in-one rail piece. Doesn't that mean you need two types of curved rail for a corner?

They are rails from the old space monorail sets, so no.
