I was just wondering if there would be a market for 1x1 bricks engraved with letters and numbers. I was thinking of creating a set of 100 --could be on white, blue, red, yellow brick with choice of color for letters. If any interest, what would be a (...)

OK, well one really simple, almost trivial thing: you can run the IR train on the same track as the 9V, allowing you to have two trains going around a track in different directions, with just a quick timed siding excursion to let them pass and (...)

I’d like to pose a question that’s been bothering me lately. Since RC trains made they’re debut last year many issues have risen with the product in its current form.
