Christian,
Thanks for posting the reply you got from Lego Direct. I was pleased to see
a) that an AFOL got a pleasant, personal email from Lego Direct
b) a mention about possible new trains from Lego Direct
Even though the train line mention was just that, "a mention" and not a
promise or commitment, it was nice to see in print.
Thanks again,
Bryan Kinkel
