  Hi,
        have just been to lego's online store to buy 2 metroliner
sets with the extra tourist car add , it's called "metroliner kit".

Now you can buy the extrta car on it's own as well as the metroliner on it's

they cannot be bourght in the Australian part of the site but can be found on

What's go on here?! isn't this why the store was set up ,to buy speaicalty sets
and elements available to everyone world wide. If anyone may know why this is so
please drop a post.
