Well, its not really just that it's obstructed by decorations and buildings, that's always an issue. You always have to go around things. However, I think I'm having the same problem I think the OP is having. It's that you can't always line up sections of track because if you put in a new section of track coming from somewhere else and try to comnect it up with the existing track, it can end up with the track segments being exactly ONE space off from connecting together. That one space will obviously cause the train to stop at that point because the track is not complete.

HOWEVER, I just discovered something I hadn't reall though of before. In my town I have my Monorail track system set up as one complete track. It makes one complete loop and comes back to the station it started at. So, at this point anyway (unless I'm missing something), there is only ONE tunnel which goes through the mountains into the Springfield Heights section of the map. I assume maybe they will offer another one later but if they don't, then you CAN'T connect up a section of track and have it going up into the Springfield Heights section of the map amd then loop and come back down to the existing monorail track system in Springfield (and have it all be one continuous loop lke I have now). The reason for that is because there is no tunnel for a return track. Right now with only one tunnel into Springfield Heights (again, unless I missed getting a 2nd one) you can have a track go up INTO Sprinfieldheights but there is no tunnel to have a track come back and connect up to the the track again down in regular Sprinfield. So, I think having a track segment that is only one piece long will still be helpful either way but I think it is even more important if they eventually DO allow for a 2nd tunnel to you can have a track go up INTO Sprinfield Heights and then have that track loop around and come BACK through the 2nd tunnel to regular Springfield.

In thinking about it, you CAN run a signle line of track UP into Springfield Heights and the train will go up the track into Sprinfield Heights and then when it reaches the end of the track it will stop and then go back the way it came and go  back down into Springfield. However, to do that it means you no longer have one continuous loop of track which is what I have now. You'd have a single line of track that starts in Springfield and then goes up into SpringField Heights but you couldn't have a continyous loop of track. Hopefully this makes sense. :)
