At Janey's request I individually photograhed every vignette at Brickfest 2005. I tried to include the MOC card in every photograph (although they sometimes appear out of focus due to the closeup nature of the photo). The gallery can be found here: (...)

(...) Somehow, I don't think BBB wheels will be in the parts list for LDD Trains :) and, while the representatives from the LEGO company didn't say no to loooking into track geometries, no one thought to ask about steam drivers :( Chris (21 years ago, 16-Aug-05, to lugnet.trains)

I've heard much talk lately about trying to bridge the gap between preschoolers (Duplo) and older kids (9V trains) -- for example, the new "play train" line announced this weekend.
