Hi All,

The Sydney Lego Train club has just taken delivery of 8 7898 train sets from
Moore Educational in Melbourne. Moore Educational are the sole Australian
distributor of this set. It will not be available in the stores nor will it be
sold via Lego Shop at home web site. They had only 24 sets available but now
have only 16 left.

The sets cost $200.00 each + GST ($220.00). Moore Educational use a courier
service to deliver the set and charge $50.00 freight for one set or for ten
sets. So if you are a member of a lego club you can place a bulk order via the
Moore Educational web site and divide the $50.00 freight cost between you. For
Melbournites you can walk into their shop and buy it direct in person.
