I start with my conclusion:
If you look for a very nice Christmas present, for yourself or for your kids: go
buy this Christmas Train!!!

I could not resist to buy this nice set at the Brand Store in
Oberhausen-Germany. I build it, and made some pics.

I'm unclear on whether the 10173 Christmas Train set will become available to
the general public later this fall via Shop at Home.  Does anyone have
authoritative information regarding this?

Thanks,
Jordan

I guess it should reach *every* european countries soon as the sets available
thru SaH for France. Eric Borrega from FreeLUG has shot some pictures :

Starting yesterday, Shop@Home is selling the train in European countries. Change
'country' (top-left) in the S@H site, and check it out.

On the details page they also mention a K101== nr., regarding a set with 9V (!)
track and motor! Usually these 'extra's' come first available in the USA.
