A great way for TLC to get their foot in the door WRT to European trains would
be to get a licensing agreement with Britt Allcroft and produce some Thomas
trains. Since they are all based upon prototypes anyway, I would think that
we'd all come out winners-- TLC gets a slam-dunk seller of a line, and we get
new parts for Euro-trains or whatever.
(Brad, this is your quarterly reminder to pursue a Thomas license agreement:)
