It was in reference to the fact that TLG have finally made the much desired
crossover track... but most of us can’t use it.

I see. Well, that is why God created

We could debate whether it was god who created me all day, but I do know I was
the first to create the double crossover.
As seen in this post dated Tue, 22 Nov
2005
I find it odd that the only 3 differences that can seen between MY version and
TLC’s are lack of metal rails, combo switches “which will derail trains unless
the mechanism was re-designed” and the joint in the middle.
Now don’t get me wrong I’m happy to see Lego do something for the community as
it never happens with part design, BUT quite honestly I’m very pissed off that I
was not contacted to be told they were going to use MY idea. It would have
been a nice gesture to have been written a letter saying they liked my idea and
they want to use it. I worked very hard for a long time to design, build and
make the double crossover work flawlessly. I don’t know if I have a legal
standing on this but I may find out.
This really perturbs me,
Ondrew
P.s. monetary compensation is not something I’m after, however an
acknowledgement from TLC would be appreciated.
