Indeed. These sets get a number of things right: More subdued colors (lots of
dark grey, brown, tan and green), more realism, less juniorization, additional
options for power, more use of train windows, and more options for track
layouts thanks to the shortened track pieces.
If they're hoaxes, get your designers cracking and get us something nearly as
good. If they're for real, congratuations and thank you for listening.
As I said, Train heads buy a lot of stuff. We're nutty that way. Since you've
gotten the Star Wars heads hooked up (and hopefully made lots of money doing
so) we were a natural market. And DCC (Digital Command Control) means you're
going to be taken a lot more seriously.
Just fix the turnout geometry, come out with a new larger radius of track in
addition to 4520, and make sure some of these parts are available in spares or
bulk, and we'll go from ecstatic to delerious.
