If LEGO granted Christmas wishes, I would have to ask for: 1) 5.5 length technic axle - so my train wheels don't fall off anymore 2) modular train railing system - so I don't have to cut any more hose and the awkward use of minifig hands 3) train (...)

  Re: What I want for Christmas
 
(...) I'd be happy just to get some 'official' information on the power function trains that are rumored to appear sometime in 2009. The last three weekends the GMLTC has been set up at the Minnesota Transportation Museum's Jackson Street (...) (16 years ago, 22-Dec-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

  Re: What I want for Christmas
 
(...) A release date (month, anyway) for the first Power Functions train sets would be a major step in spreading the word and I'm sure that's the first thing on J-1's list. Any information on price points and types of sets that are coming out in (...) (16 years ago, 23-Dec-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: What I want for Christmas
 
(...) All that would be a good start. I'd like to know recommended age range(s), since so many of the people asking us train questions are parents with small kids. I'd like to know what sort of battery pack they'll have. I seem to remember someone (...) (16 years ago, 23-Dec-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

(...) The head of the PFS group is on holidays presently but I will pass this list on to him in the new year and I'll pass it through the Ambassadors program now in case that gets different results. I suspect that some of this may be answered and (...) (16 years ago, 24-Dec-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)

  Re: What I want for Christmas
 
(...) I forgot to link to (URL) which in part answers some of your questions. Railbricks 2 ((URL)) has some extra info from Steve B. Unfortunately I wouldn't hold your breath for anything not covered in those articles but I have passed along the (...) (15 years ago, 26-Dec-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: What I want for Christmas
 
(...) Thanks for the reminder about Railbricks...I have copies of those PDFs sitting on a hard drive inside a dead desktop PC and had forgotten about them. (...) Well, yes, that's what we've been doing...for a few years now. Always looking for (...) (15 years ago, 27-Dec-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
 
  Re: What I want for Christmas
 
--snip-- (...) Keep in mind that release dates won't be fixed until everything is sorted out and ready to be released. As past experience has shown, from TLG's perspective it's better to be vague and correct than exact and incorrect. Remember too (...) (15 years ago, 27-Dec-08, to lugnet.general, FTX)
