It’s absolutely GALLING that it was not on your
issue list. And that your reaction is being brought to the forums *NOW*,
to be *ADDED* to the list, really appalls me. It should have been #1 on
the list ALL ALONG!!!!

That seems a bit harsh. As a non-trainhead (organizing our clubs first train
show for September) I thought 9V was SAVED. The save9vtrains website has not
been updated in months the last time I looked. The Hobby Train (K10183) set
came out and has been marketed as a 9V set. I have seen no “9V trains are
dead!” messages here on LUGNET.
I guess it is still a concern so thanks for making sure it stays on the
agenda. Getting your nose out of joint is a bit much though.

I’m not sure you should see a lack of information from TLG as confirmation of
anything... I certainly wouldn’t.

I have noticed, in the last six months or so, that retailers like TRU that used
to carry things on their website like train motors and track, are no longer
carrying train motors and track. First the items were marked ‘sold out’ or ‘not
available online’ but recently they’ve disappeared from the websites entirely.
A quick google search shows the only place to buy a new LEGO 9v train motor
through retail is Shop at Home.
I’m not sure what it all means, but I’m sure it means something.

| (...) Stores used to carry LEGO train sets on shelves, too. However, I don't know if they were big sellers -- I got a 4561 Railway Express at Target for 50% off. TRU always has a good LEGO selection, but I haven't even seen any of the RC train sets (...) (17 years ago, 30-Jul-07, to lugnet.ambassadors, FTX)
