Will this reverse the 'juniorization' trend in our Train sets? Only time
shall tell. I was just about to post a message saying that TLC has truly
given up on trains (my opinion). But when I came across this, it really
lifted my spirits. Perhaps TLC has realized the true power of LUGNET after
all and once again, I wish to thank LUGNET and it's creators for reawakening
me from a 12-year slumber...-Harvey

Speaking of lifting spirits, I'm right there with ya'!  With the lack of new
trains and town sets for 2001, I was feeling a bit down.  The revelation of
being able to build your own sets lifts TLC back upon the pedestal I placed
them on in the early '90s when they made the Metroliner, Nautica sets, etc.

Congratulations Todd and Suz.  The AFOL "Revolution" against some of TLC's
policies is coming to a close, thanks to you and the many others who have
fought bravely and peacefully.
