Do Lego tires wear out?
The tread does indeed wear off and the tires actualy begin to split. The rubber doesn’t cling to the rails themselves, but residue does begin to accumulate below the tracks. The ease of clearing the area of the tire debrie all depends on what you have built below the track. It can be blown clear, or wiped away.

White looks very different from old grey, and would blend in very, very nicely in a snowy landscape. Straight track is one of the most expensive parts to get in any LEGO train, and Monorails are no different. 4DBrix currently makes three lengths of straight track, quarter, half, and full lengths.
Which is the most expensive part of a Lego train?

Why are there extension cars on the monorail?
The extension car is quite a nifty invention- it allows you to add extra cars to the monorail, instead of just having it be two cars and a motor. The motor cover is also quite nice for a city display like 6399, but I don’t feel like it is very necessary for a Space setup- the motor looks quite Space-y by itself.
