Here is the question:
What would be your LEGO Dream Set?

Great question!
So I guess if we’re offering up our “dream set” ideas we’re allowed to dream in

engine looks like, but to me this one captures many of the features common to a
variety of pumpers.

scale. Is it any scale that relates to the LEGO system? No, probably not, but
then we’re dreaming, right? :)
