(...) BRAD, good looking out, i pre-ordered, but is this including speed regulator or will i need to purchase it sepretly if so i will need to add it onto my order so let me know please, thanks you or if anyone knows for that fact. Andrew (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: now arriving for advance orders... metroliner and club car
 
(...) Andrew, I just heard for sure that there is no regulator included in the Metroliner set. You will need to purchase that separately. Thanks! Jake --- Jake McKee Sr. Producer LEGO Direct (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)

  Re: now arriving for advance orders... metroliner and club car
 
(...) My guess is that the pieces in 10001 will be structurally different. As an example, the inside of a lt grey 1x6 brick from 1993 *might* look different from a 2001 copy (I stress *might*). One thing I am pretty sure of is that the stud on the (...) (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: now arriving for advance orders... metroliner and club car

  Re: now arriving for advance orders... metroliner and club car
 
(...) Since this is your "first" train set...then the easy answer is "YES" you need a speed regulator to run the train. Benjamin Medinets (23 years ago, 14-Aug-01, to lugnet.lego.direct)
 
  Re: now arriving for advance orders... metroliner and club car
 
Yes, you will need a regulator. But rather than spend full retail, I suggest you post to buy-sell-trade and ask for one there - many people have WAY too many regulators in their collection (especially if they parted out 4561s or 4565s like I did), (...)
