(...) One thing I would take as giving some hope to getting a new type of train driver is that TLC has created special parts which have so far only showed up in a single set, and not even a high volume set. I suspect that if TLC gets a good feeling (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Hey, don't get us wrong-- we shot for the moon! But Rome wasn't built in a day, and everything we wanted won't be produced tomorrow, and maybe never. But the Romans are breaking ground;-) LTCs and LTDs (LEGO Train Dudes) caught the interest (...) (24 years ago, 8-Feb-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.lego.direct)

You wouldn't expect that we would have asked for things way different that what we asked for publicly in this group and elsewhere, would you? If (...)

And I've clearly not been into trains for long enough or I would have remembered to mention _matching_brown_doors_. :) I'm a bit disappointed with (...)

(...) Yes, but over a few years, a child can accumulate a substantial amount of bricks to use. And by the time they have a large supply of lego, they most likely will have a job or other source of income to use towards the purchase of Lego. I (...) (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

(...) Relax, this picture is from 1963. They are from the Architectural Series parts packs from 1963-65 (#518, 519, 520, 521), a short lived, but not very successful series. In fact I took this very picture, and it got passed around. :-) Gary Istok (24 years ago, 7-Feb-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
