You forgot to link it under "ground vehicles". It's only available through the newspost.

Re: Kitaryn Design Bureau: Zephyr Monorail Feedback


Amazing! I need to get some characters on one of these for some hijinks.

Question, are the doors on the baggage car large enough to get a speeder through, or would a modded freighter car be needed with totally different doors? Is there a need for a freight car to be included?

Which leads me to wonder if the Star Wars universe needs a freight train. Some planets only have one decent starport, freighters of any decent size wouldn't want to stop at every little town on a planet to make deliveries. Stacked speeders, cattle cars, liquid containers, a hobo. Hah, I just wanted to say Hobo.

Hope that's not off topic, I do love this design!

First off, glad you like it.


The freight car. Yes, there is a need. There is little room for personal baggage in the other passenger cars with the exception of the 2 car suite. Think of it not as a freight car but as a baggage car. Or to use modern airliners- checked luggage in the hold.

As to holding a speeder, you may have to modifiy the car. I didn't do a test to see if a speeder would fit or not. Let us know.

Freight trains are much cheaper than an Ship, so there is definitely a need. If a Train goes with 500 km/h that's okay... Given the mass of goods it can transport.
