Hoping to provide a modern, safe transportation system for Boston, in 1886 Joe V. Meigs built a stretch of monorail track and a three-car monorail steam train to demonstrate the feasibility of his design.
The Meigs Experimental Steam Monorail consists of several Poser figures with many operating parts.
