I have been on a quest for black wagon plates for a while so I am thrilled
that they are available again.
As I was cutting the grass this afternoon I was thinking about the color
choices (gray and blue) that LEGO has presented us. The more I thought
about it, the more blue makes sense. 4561, the only train that is readily
available (I know 4565 is still available at S@H, but 4561 is available at
Target, Wal-Mart, TRU, etc) and it is a white, blue, and black train. By
offering blue windows and doors along with black wagon plates, someone who
purchases 4561 can enhance their train fairly easily.
Could grey (or possibly blue) mean that we will see a new train in 2001 that
carries that color scheme?
