Yeah - I like it, and my mate Chris (a non-Internet AFOL) does too. I just got my 4561 on Friday and it looks a lot better built than it does in the catalogue. I won't say it's perfect - it has it's good and bad points. The obvious bad point is the (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.reviews)

I've looked at a couple of traces and it looks like the serial driver just stops receiving data after a certain point.

I don't see # 2 as correct. Rae had her bid in first, so if Chris bid $2.00, Rae should have the winning bid at $2.00, NOT $2.10, because she has the earlier bid. You shouldn't increment her's OVER his hard bid, just equal to it. So if you write (...) (25 years ago, 3-Oct-99, to lugnet.market.theory)
