Nope, Not going... TLG says it stays for the time being as a companion to

There are also looking to suppourt RO6.. (The updated version of an obscure
Britsh OS that was popular in schools during the early 1990's) Wow! At last

Clarification: Switchtrack is the DCC/Mindstorms system for trains... I'm
very suprised they managed to get it to retrofit so well...
Midnight City was the non HP- Haunted House range... It did not sell very
