BRING BACK THE FREIGHT RAIL RUNNER!
I was a dedicated S@H purchaser for (me and) my son who was devistated when
the Freight Rail Runner (4564) was discontinued after one issue of S@H.
After that experience, I was much more knowledgable and purchased the blue
hopper the day it was reintroduced in S@H. I still don't have the 4564
engine or blue box car that I thought Lego would offer for at least one year
in the U.S.!
