(...) FWIW, on the page it's "Night", and "bogey". I will probably be ordering my EN today, and am too considering options. I have quite a mix of 9V and RC stuff (in fact, about 1/2 the Lego trains back to 1980) Probably I will suck it up and buy (...) (15 years ago, 30-Nov-09, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Hey, Benn- I'll tell you what I'd like to see-- some third party coming in and dropping in beefier motors in the existing train motor. That would be cool.
