I'm really afraid of what will become of this decision.
What to do now?
Stock up on any remaining 9volt stuff I can get?
Switch back to 6-wide trains if these new motors aren't strong enough to pull
8-wides?
Cross my fingers and hope this decision is better thought out than the color
change was?
Switch to HO trains since that is an 'open' system supported by hundreds of
manufacturers?
I can see it now, we'll be set up at a train show and people will ask where they
can buy trains like ours. "Well, gee - sorry. Lego doesn't sell these
anymore..."
