Like a genuine,
Bona fide,
Electrified,
Six-car
Monorail!
What'd I say?
Ned Flanders: Monorail!
Lyle Lanley: What's it called?
Patty+Selma: Monorail!
Lyle Lanley: That's right! Monorail!
[crowd chants `Monorail' softly and rhythmically]
Miss Hoover: I hear those things are awfully loud...
Lyle Lanley: It glides as softly as a cloud.
Apu: Is there a chance the track could bend?
Lyle Lanley: Not on your life, my Hindu friend.
Barney: What about us brain-dead slobs?
Lyle Lanley: You'll be given cushy jobs.
Abe: Were you sent here by the devil?
Lyle Lanley: No, good sir, I'm on the level.
Wiggum: The ring came off my pudding can.
Lyle Lanley: Take my pen knife, my good man.
I swear it's Springfield's only choice...
Throw up your hands and raise your voice!
All: Monorail!
Lyle Lanley: What's it called?
All: Monorail!
Lyle Lanley: Once again...
All: Monorail!
Marge: But Main Street's still all cracked and broken...
Bart: Sorry, Mom, the mob has spoken!
All: Monorail!
Monorail!
Monorail!

Monorail!
Homer: Mono... D'oh! - d2002, on 12/02/2008, -4/+25That's a train built by lawyers.
- Norumeni, on 12/04/2008, -0/+14buried for accidentally writing 'Klingon' instead of 'climb on' or 'cling on'...Wow.
- DeFex, on 12/04/2008, -2/+9what could possibly go wrong with a 50lb gyro spinning at 15000RPM and maintained by unionized railway workers.
- passedoutghost, on 12/04/2008, -0/+6Wow....I actually sung that in my head.
- Louay, on 12/04/2008, -0/+6regardless of whether it was an old meme or not this is just ***** retarded
- SurrealEstate, on 12/04/2008, -0/+6"I'm staying on the rail of a crazy train?"
- jasdf, on 12/04/2008, -0/+5I built a prototype (still in my garage), it got come crazy looks when I would go around sharp corners at 25mph without having to lean (you still can't corner that fast on ice because there is insufficient traction to turn but you won't fall over).
- FatherDEath, on 12/02/2008, -4/+8its like a giant motorcycle what could go wrong.........ok other then the obvious.....
- bstew22, on 12/04/2008, -2/+6i circled uranus looking for klingons.
- jasdf, on 12/04/2008, -0/+4Just make sure that the gyroscope is turning in the correct direction, otherwise it will drive you into the ground. On a side note, you can also ride the bike in a constant lean, try going around a left turn while leaning to the right!
- vitriolix, on 12/04/2008, -0/+4I like turtles.
- jasdf, on 12/04/2008, -5/+9I introduce to you the Gyro Monorail:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyro_monorail - GramarNazi, on 12/04/2008, -2/+5It's perfectly safe as long as you go fast enough...
- Hetman, on 12/04/2008, -0/+3Dugg for saying klingon because I a am a tar trek fan.
- skunkw0rks, on 12/04/2008, -2/+5So... this would probably not work on the balance train?
http://bp2.blogger.com/_3h9OBKamyYk/Rp3tC4D8cEI/AA ... - kiwi2008, on 12/04/2008, -0/+3Dugg up because William Shatner probably freaked out a bit when he read that
* this is where it was meant to go. - defenswens26, on 12/04/2008, -0/+3It's obviously proven technology. However, I don't think I'd trust the stability of the car to a rotating piece of machinery. If it fails you're pretty much screwed.
- ertw1, on 12/04/2008, -0/+3"I wanna get off! I wanna get off! I wanna get off!..."
- captainbethany, on 12/04/2008, -8/+11I just hope they don't have these in India... where hundreds of people try to Klingon to the outside. Better make sure each side is PERFECTLY balanced!
- inactive, on 12/04/2008, -1/+4in soviet russia, train with one wheel balances on you!
- drgkstep, on 12/04/2008, -0/+2How are you a digger?
- inactive, on 12/05/2008, -0/+2mono,,,,,, Doh!
- Breticus07, on 12/04/2008, -1/+3let it go, the elections are over
- zakool21, on 12/04/2008, -0/+2Secondary generic literal response to a non-serious post.
- inactive, on 12/04/2008, -0/+2imagine the looks the fat guy's gonna get when he steps onto the train
- jasdf, on 12/04/2008, -2/+4I actually filed a patent for a similar principle that allows you to ride a bicycle on ice (gyroscopically stabilized).
It uses a 50lb flywheel attached to a horizontally gas engine. The flywheel spins at 15000RPM (through a planetary gearset). - EricAnderton, on 12/04/2008, -0/+2"monofail"?
- inactive, on 12/04/2008, -3/+4Monorail... monorail... MONORAIL!!!
- sh0rtstop00, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1mono rail cat, 1920 military equipped.
- jeweck6, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1Soooo we only could raise half of the funds.
- samuelmcm, on 12/04/2008, -1/+2i see FAIL written all over that monorail
- mareksoon, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1All these years we've been lied to! They're not railroad TIES after all! LIES!
- dupswapdrop, on 12/04/2008, -3/+4McCain's new bus for 2012?
- Louay, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1thats really cool

- BerryChill, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1Who wants to get on the Crazy Train?!
- drgkstep, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1bravo for wiki find. very interesting. Curious if gyros are reliable enough to avoid catastrophic failure.
- captainbethany, on 12/04/2008, -0/+1it wasn't an accident, idiot.
