Interesting quote here...
"Hopefully, someday Trains will be as good as it once was."

I would assert that today, right now, is a LEGO Train heyday! There are at
least two reasons to support this.

1) There are more 9v train models/sets available today than ever before.
2) There are more individual elements available from LEGO and on the
secondary market than ever before.

And some comments...

As for a train station, if you want a train station, pick one that you like
and build it. That's what this hobby is all about.

The worse thing that LEGO can do to themselves is slowly turn into Revell
(the plastic model company) and completely loose the magic that keeps their
customers loyal; infinite possibilities. LEGO has lost faith in their
customer's dreams and aspirations, the exact ingredients that feeds the
desire to build.

I'd rather see LEGO stop making new sets and chasing trendy themes and
release 100 unique part packs for 25 different colors! Or at least bulk some
buckets (when ever they get here).

And until that day, there's something like a million bricks for sale on
brick link! No shortage there.

After we all recieve these nice Lego cars designed by James Mathis, we are going to need a Train Station. To be honest, I would rather see a Station than a B-unit or Steam Engine wheels. But, I don't know, what does everyone else think? I also think (...) (22 years ago, 1-Aug-02, to lugnet.trains)
