One of my regrets is only keeping enough track for a figure eight from a futuron
set I got in a bulk order. It was missing some of the base parts and I figured
I'd sell off the straight track and other parts to fund the purchase. At
least I still have a small working monorail, but I'm always keeping a look
out for the up/down and straight tracks.

Bought my first on impulse and haven’t let any go since.

I have five copies of 6347, one of 6921, and the track of 6990 that I hope to
list later this year. Currently they haven't gone through our quality control
since some of them may have discoloration and need to be cleaned.
Always difficult to find but getting harder every year.
Came across these though last weekend, looks like I’m getting closer to finishing
it.
So, what can you tell me about the construction of the 6990? In regards to the
1/4 dome panels platform. I had one years ago and recall the one half of the
platform rotating as it moved towards the track. I just got another 6990 and
followed the instructions and it does not work as drawn. Was there an instruction
revision to correct the error?
Thanks Ed

You are building it wrong?
See first video review on Brickset, by BrickTsar, at around 6min in, to see what
it should do.
You may also find 3D models around to see what’s wrong with yours.

Most of you know that I have a passion for monorails...
Here is a Monorail video from a Lego fan convention BrickFair NE 2013. It was
a well-planned collaborative effort and truly amazing. More Lego monorails in
one place than perhaps anywhere else, ever.
Thank you, truly stunning, wish I had enough to build a fraction of this.

I hope this message gets to whoever Would like to see it. My name is Greg and
I just joined the site. I am 38 years old and I have quite an extensive LEGO
collection from when I was a kid. I have the airport shuttle (model 6399), However,
I noticed that it had some extra pieces of track with it when I was counting
out all of the pieces in the set making sure everything was there before selling.
Anyways, then I remembered that my dad had purchased an extra set of track when
he gave me the airport shuttle. So I currently have one Full set Of extra mono
rail track. Model number 6347. I just joined the site and I would like to start
selling my sets, however, I am confused because I do not want to have to purchase
a set Just for the privilege of selling mine. Anyways, here are some pictures.
I have literally hundreds of sets that are in high-quality like new shape. If
there is anybody out there willing to help me through this process, I would greatly
appreciate it. This site is really cool and I would love to start selling my
Legos on it. I was going to post the extra track for $260. Please feel free to
message me or help me somehow thank you so much.
You could just buy a part for like 1 cent to get some feedback.
