|
|
As the subject says, these are inferences, not direct quotes. But I have given references to why I think my "read between the lines" statements are accurate. 1.

(...) I was typing pretty fast (and incoherently in some cases...) so may have missed it but I don't think that question was asked, nor was it answered. (23 years ago, 16-Jul-01, to lugnet.events.brickfest)

(...) But the original box was badged Trains not Town... The metroliner had grey 1x4s in it, does that make it Classic Space? LEGO(r) set up different themes, LEGO decided how to organize them.
