| | | | | (...) Whoa! That is awesome. That engine is epic, the Maersk color scheme rocks on a train. Even the flatbed cars look great, and I normally don't care for flatbeds. This will look good along my BNSF and... ahem... Enlighten brand Union Pacific. I (...) (13 years ago, 23-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | | | | | (...) I wonder if the price will be jacked up higher than typical train sets? Comparing to the container ship price increase this year, I might expect it. None-the-less, I really like this set and would consider multiples depending on price as well. (...) (13 years ago, 24-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

|
| | | | | | (...) Well if the set is like the Emerald Night and does not come with the track and motor parts, I could see this being in a similar price range. After all the flat beds and yard-tractor (truck) aren't significantly more than the tender and dinning (...) (13 years ago, 26-Jan-11, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

| | | | | | | | | Re: 10219 Maersk Container train set —John Neal
|
| | | | | | | | (...) Well, that's precisely my point. I was actually directing my comment towards TLG. You really can't have locomotives being the same width as a container, or a bus or a police car, for that matter! But I do not pretend to understand their loco (...)

| | | | | | | | | | Re: 10219 Maersk Container train set —Larry Pieniazek
|
| | | | | | | | (...) Locomotives are not 33% wider than containers. I'm pretty sure anyway. If the locomotive is 6 wide plus some overhangs here and there, handrails, etc, and the container is 6 EXACTLY, that seems to me like enough of a difference. Container well (...)

| | | | | | | | | | Re: 10219 Maersk Container train set —John Neal
|
| | | | | | | | (...) Containers are about 8' wide. A loco is generally about 10' wide. That's a ratio of 4:5. The ratio of 6 wide to 8 wide is 3:4, but that is certainly more plausible than 1:1 (6 wide to 6 wide). And I mention again for emphasis: the cars and (...)

| | | | | | | | | (...) Well, there *is* a very practical reason to run some stuff 8 wide. An 8 wide hopper is big enough that you can put last year's cheap Halloween candy in it, and let kids carefully grab some from the train. Either let them get it from the slowly (...)
