Your Creations - Now Open!

A few of you may have seen our store homepage and wondered what the 'Your Creations' section (Orange Tab) at the bottom was. Until how it has been simply listed as Under Construction but it was always intended to be a gallery of user-submitted PLARAIL layouts and designs. I am pleased to announce that the section is now tentatively open for any submissions from our readers, customers and anyone else who wants to showcase their PLARAIL layout online. It still needs more tweaking, but once we get more pictures up, we hope that it will grow into a nice display of what PLARAIL is capable of.

We'll take submissions of all your designs no matter how intricate or simple they may be. We just request that the design be 100% yours, and not random pictures that you find on the web. If you are interested in submitting an image for the gallery, please contact us at namikazetoys@gmail.com.

For now, enjoy the first few gallery entries from a friend of ours. You can see more of his layouts on his own blog at http://thomastrainworld.blogspot.com

onto our new featured items....

Hanging Monorail Extension Set

• 6 R-01 (straight rails used in vertical positioning)
• 8 MR-01 (inner curved rail for hanging monorail)
• 14 MJ-01 (can be stacked with J-14 Yellow Bridge Legs)

Hanging Monorails (Construction Yellow and Emergency Red)

Japan does have hanging monorails, however, these are not based on any real life yellow or red monorails. The monorails debuted in 2002 and were originally manufactured in yellow, red, blue, silver, and black.

Each train is a 1 speed engine, with forward or reverse direction control switch. The on/off switch is in a difficult to access space on top the monorail, so a convenient gray 'pause' button is placed underneath for easier access when the monorail is in motion.



Hanging Monorail Support Legs

includes: 4 MJ-01 legs that can stack on J-14 yellow bridge legs

These support legs can use R-01 Straight Rails to create straight paths, but require special MR-01 Curved Rails to create a turning track. These items all debuted in 2002 and are no longer manufactured.



Pokemon Rayquaza Battle Coaster Set

The next two Pokemon sets are based off real amusement park rides. PokéPark was a Pokemon theme park in 2005 - 2006.
