  Train strain?
 
Have recently acquired from a car boot sale - thanks, Mum! - approx UK£200 retail of Duplo train. The highlight is bridge 2738, but I have a concern: My - or rather my daughter's?! - engine was bought as my - sorry her - Xmas present (freight train (...) (24 years ago, 3-Feb-01, to lugnet.duplo)

  Does 2988 Exist?
 
Does set number 2988 Winnie the Pooh Power Bucket(?) exist? Might it be the number for non U.S. release of 2989, which is a bucket (with a big Pooh head lid!) that I have seen at my local TRU. My wife actually wants us to be "Pooh complete", and I (...) (24 years ago, 21-Jan-01, to lugnet.duplo)

  Re: TLC re-releasing discontinued LEGO Duplo set!
 
The 48x48 gray baseplate got a new number once. I was able to buy several hundred at clearance prices because they had the old discontinued number on them. I would hardly call them re-released, though. Mike Poindexter Erik Olson <olsone@spamcop.net> (...)

  Re: TLC re-releasing discontinued LEGO Duplo set!
 
Town sets from 1978 got new dates when their packaging was changed. They weren't discontinued, just refreshed. (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.duplo)
 
  Re: TLC re-releasing discontinued LEGO Duplo set!
 
(...) I guess it all depends on how you define a discontinued set, and even what constitutes a re-release (and does a set have to be discontinued to be re-released?). If we define a set with more than one copyright date as a re-release, then there (...) (24 years ago, 14-Dec-00, to lugnet.admin.database, lugnet.general, lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.duplo)

Hi all, although we shouldn't be optimistic becuase the small fact I found out today, I still can't wait to tell you about it!
