David,

   Just curious, what did you think about the intelligent train?
   My son really enjoyed playing with that. He probably would still be
playing with it if I wasn't so into 9v trains. He enjoyed making it toot
with the different bricks, and he _LOVED_ the gas station brick.
   Two places where I thought it fell short were, (1) I wish that were a
correlation between the number of times it went around the track before
stopping for gas and how long the train was being filled with gas, and
(2) I was very annoyed that the only way to return the train to the
forward direction was to make the train go over the reverse direction
brick. I think the first point would have made the gas station brick a
bit more fun, but the second point was a real sore spot with me.

Sorry I don't have an Intelligent train, or even a Duplo train. I have just been
looking at them wondering if the Play Train would be like them. I think they
look great and new designs for 2005. The Intelligent train looked exciting but
TLG said it was too complex for young children.
