Well I hope this does not get burried by any furvor created by whatever is going to be released over on www.lego.com .

(...) Speaking of which, I'm finally getting around to that. The trailer is 24x96 studs, so I'll be widening a spare 5571 to match (may lengthen it a bit too, and will definitely add a Technic engine). You don't even want to know how many 1x16 black (...) (25 years ago, 13-Oct-99, to lugnet.build)
