I won't post an update until later on tonight. But thanks, I plan on adding balconies to some of the buildings but it's just a thought for now.

YES!!! I hate that thing. I wanted it to make the front/back less rounder and more like a bullet train but the damn thing was too hard!! I made the train extra long because unlike most (or all) monorails which only use one track this one uses two. The extra length makes up for the second train.

The rich, The poor, and the goverment.

La Corte Times
Reporter:Mr. Domo Arigato Mr. Roboto

All great cities start from scratch. This is not the case of La Corte, fancy hotels, some of the best hotel chains, and luxury are the main factors of this city. The government worries that all these riches will drive the middle income people away from the city. Today the Mexican government announced it will use 1.5 billions dollars to create affordable living in and around the city. This will insure that the city grows, gets economic income, and that the money stays in La Corte. Without people willing to do cleaning, sewer inspections, plumbing etc, the rich will want to leave the city. For now at least 4 affordable residential buildings are planned in this city of riches so pack your stuff and fly to a Corte.
