happened is that shell have moved stock from a smaller servo to there.

NOTE: apparently some shell servo's in Aus DID have the select shop set in
the last promo...pity they didn't tell anyone.

They are still about though, I have seen them at three or four places in the
last six months. You usually have to ask them what the price is, which is
maybe why they tend to hang around.

I was filling up my car at a Shell service station the other
day, and I noticed an interesting thing...

As I was paying for my fuel, I noticed they had about eight
promo sets. They were from the castle theme. I'm not sure of
the set name, but it looked the same as the "flamethrower
wagon". The number on the box was No. 4.

Is this a new lot of promo sets? I was under the impression
that the last lot of promo sets was from the city theme, and
this station isn't old enough to have old stock lying around
from the promo before that.
