Hi
I have just found the box for Duplo 514 circa 1972, but I cant work out what
bits go in it. (The set is my husbands and he cant remember).
The pieces I have found do not fit well in the packaging and there is plenty
of room for more.
Does anyone have a list of what pieces should be in this kit?
Many thanks
Linda

Heres what Ive been able to piece together from the
1972 catalog:
Duplo Brick 2 x
6 x 2 with Curved Center 2 red
2 yellow
1 blue
Duplo Brick 2 x 4
2 red
2 yellow
3 blue
Brick 2 x 2
1 red
2 yellow
3 blue
The set entry on Peeron entry shows a piece count of 17, but looking at the model on the box and
in the pieces in the window, I say there are at least 18 pieces; the plastic
window clearly shows a second, yellow 2 x 6 x 2 with Curved Center. Im curious
if there is an actual part number on the bottom of those curved pieces. Any
chance you could take a flashlight an look?
If you do get an proper inventory, please post here it or submit it to Peeron so
everybody can benefit.

I know, bad form to reply to myself, yadda yadda yadda... :-)
I've received two e-mail about the new Thomas and Friends line. Both
have mentioned the new Thomas and Friends line-up will be Salty,
Spencer and Gordon. According to one of the sites[1] forwarded to me
(http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin/WTI0058p?&N=N&P=G&B=Y&F=LNPGV8&L=GALF8807&C=FACGAL),
prices will be in the range $12.99 to $29.99. A German site[1]
corroborates this:
http://www.preisroboter.de/search.php?search=lego+thomas&x=0&y=0&min=&max=
- if you read German. The unconfirmed release date is August[2].
A few of the non-Thomas sets are available on Brickshelf[1]:

A guy called Jeremy on the Trackdraw Yahoo group linked to his Duplo
Intelli-train site which I thought was pretty interesting, especially the
hacking page
