How about bringing back the Wild West theme with a big Wild West style train, complete with bandits to hold the train up and the proverbial tramp in a cattle/box car? Nicholas Allan "Scott A" <s.arthur@hw.ac.uk> wrote in message (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.general)

Sounds like a good idea to me. I'd like a cattle car for my train, especially if it had cattle in it! (...) (24 years ago, 8-Jul-00, to lugnet.general)

I hate to start my post with a lame movie as a good theme, but I just got done watching the movie version of "Wild wild West". While watching it I just kept thinking of all the great lego stuff you could build around that. The only negative side of (...) (24 years ago, 9-Jul-00, to lugnet.general)

I love the Wild Wild West theme idea. I used to watch the show on TV all the time (before and after it went to reruns). My favorite LEGO set is #396 - the Thatcher Perkins Locomotive, an 1863 vintage western style train locomotive. (I never met a (...) (24 years ago, 10-Jul-00, to lugnet.general)
