I was using Lego Digital Designer and am disappointed the downhill availabilty
of certain important parts to build "buyable" models.
I would like to see a return of "warehouse" sliding doors to make
box cars.
Train-style doors would also be nice as well as train windows (both in
2x3 and 4x3)... please.
I looked at the instructions to build a mail car from the 7722, and
found that I really only need 2 red sliding rail doors, the pair of
"decorated train doors" and a set of two 2x3 thin yellow train
windows.
Yes, there was a bit of minor substitution but it is mostly distiguishable
as the model.
Here is what it looks like:

Yeah I know... where are the f-in doors???

I tried a version of this last year with my advent calendar for my
niece. She got the big castle set (in 24 sections) with a princess
added in one of the two towers. It was quite popular, but I can't say
for sure that it wouldn't have been popular, even without the princess.
Play well,

I agree, this is an excellent suggestion, and in fact it is a mystery to me that
they are not doing it already. A few carefully designed specialised parts would
almost certainly increase the mass appeal of such sets. While making tracks
with existing parts is of course possible, it can be quite tricky and time
consuming. It would be very natural to have something that could be snapped
together with less fuss...

Wow - that's amazing, congratulations! I (and I expect others) would be very
glad to see some close-up photos showing exactly how your construction works...
