I like that. :) The "movement" looks a little jerky but I guess that is inevitable given the method used to achieve it. The cunning part for me is the way it damages and knocks the player out of the way. That hasn't been done particularly convincingly with similar vehicles in the past. It's also the first one that I have seen that makes a 3D vehicle.

I have to say that my favourite train demo is still Russell Pearson's monorail. That looks very good (especially after a bit of adjustment to the lighting levels and so on). However, it is just done by moving cameras and scrolling textures so it is completely non-interactive and really only useful for cutscenes and so on (which I have used it for) but your idea can actually be used as a playable area in the map.

Thanks for the reply.

I know that the code could be cleaned up. I just wanted to see if it could be done.
