Thanks for the feedback, Nathan. Prior to making the Santa Express I had
been thinking about creating a Psychedelic Train which would have virtually
no relation to reality and would go round and round inside a Fun House like
set that would feature an insane mish-mash of all kind of LEGO themes (your
mushroom houses would fit right in!).
That idea is still on the list, but while working on the Christmas train I
started thinking about building a train where each car would relate to a
different theme - an Egyptian Mummy car, a Wild West car, a Castle car, a
Ninja car, a Spooky car etc. That ought to drive some of the regular Train
folks bonkers! Something to work on in 2001.
