How to Increase the Speed of a Disney Monorail Toy Car

The Disney Monorail toy kit offers up entertainment for people of all ages. This set allows a massive amount of customization. You can turn the track into almost anything you wish by using the pieces included with the Disney kit. Further, you can fully customize the track on your own, as well. One main process involves increasing the speed of the toy car for the monorail. To do so, you need to think about reducing friction to the best of your ability.

Things You'll Need

Vacuum
Compressed air
WD-40

Instructions

- 1
  Clean the track. Any dirt or other obstructions will slow your train down considerably. Use a vacuum or compressed air to fully clean the track.
- 2
  Lube up the exterior components of the train. Use WD-40 on key surface areas in order to maximize speed and minimize friction.
- 3
  Lube up the interior components of the train. The engine contains many gears that allow it to function. Over time, these gears can corrode and become filled with friction. If you frequently lubricate the gears, you will maximize the speed of your train.
