    THE MONORAIL SONG
    Lyle Langley: I've sold monorails to Brockway, Ogdenville, and North Haverbrook. And, by gum, it put them on the map. Well, sir, there's nothing on earth like a genuine, bona fide, electrified, six-car monorail. What'd I say?
    Flanders: Monorail!
    Langley: What's it called?
    Patty and Selma: Monorail. (Crowd softly chants "monorail" over and over)
    Ms. Hoover: I hear those things are awfully loud.
    Langley: It glides as softly as a cloud.
    Apu: Is there a chance the track could bend?
    Langley: Not on your life, my Hindu friend.
    Barney: What about us brain-dead slobs?
    Langley: You'll be given cushy jobs.
    Grampa: Were you sent here by the devil?
    Langley: No good sir, I'm on the level.
    Wiggum: The ring came off my pudding can.
    Langley: Take my pen knife, my good man. (Crowd stops chanting "monorail") I swear
    it's Springfield's only choice! Throw up your hands and raise your voice!
    Crowd: Monorail!
    Langley: What's it called?
    Crowd: Monorail!
    Langley: Once again!
    Crowd: Monorail!
    Marge: But Main Street's still all cracked and broken.
    Bart: Sorry, mom, the crowd has spoken.
    Crowd: Monorail...Monorail...Monorail! Monorail!
    Homer: Mono..d'oh!

    But Main Street's still all cracked and broken - that would be the LUAS all right.

    Yeah unfortuntly I couldn't find any decent quality snapshots from that episode ('Marge vs The Monorail').

    Now having Leonard Nimoy over for the opening of the LUAS would have been a good idea.

    When he sees one of the trams: "I believe this vessel could do at least warp 5" :D
