The Simpsons: Springfield Monorail

Description
There's nothing on Earth like a genuine, bona-fide, electrified, 6 car monorail!

As featured in one of the all-time best episodes of the Simpsons, the Springfield Monorail is the perfect boondoggle for your small town with a centralized population to spend way too much money on.

This train is based off of the legendary Simpsons episode "Marge vs. the Monorail", and features exaggerated, cartoon proportions blended with realistic design elements and high fidelity textures. It is as close to screen-accurate as I could make it, considering the Monorail changes proportions in nearly every shot that it is featured in, and has depictions in newer episodes and Simpsons media with an almost entirely different design.

The model features submeshes and custom shaders to make sure the train doesn't look "dirty" like the vanilla monorails, while retaining the rail clamps below the top of the track. It only comes in the Simpsons red color, and uses vanilla sounds.

FAQs

Where are other monorails?

and, This song is near the end of the first act and sung during a town meeting when trying to discuss what to do with some money the town got from Mr. Burns. It is a parody of songs such as "Rock Island" and "Ya Got Trouble" from the musical Meredith Willson's The Music Man, where instead of lyrics being sung, they are spoken in a kind of crazy version of Gilbert-and-Sullivan-esque patter, with the exception of the final stanza, where everyone joins in song. The song was written by Al Jean, Jeff Martin, George Meyer, Frank Mula, Conan O'Brien, John Swartzwelder, and Jon Vitti. It is the twenty-ninth track on Songs in the Key of Springfield.
