  Sighting in Chiefland FL
 
The WalMart SC in Chiefland *finally* has some of the 2000 Lego sets. I saw most of the smaller sets, some of the medium sets and *none* of the big sets (Castle, Highway, etc). Everything at WMs 'low low low' MSRP less 3 cents price :( Ray (25 years ago, 24-Dec-99, to lugnet.loc.us.fl)

As everyone says, it's minifig scale, BUT if you had to chose the closest model train scale, I would say O scale. Now, of course, minifig scale means cars and trains that can only fit one minifig width-wise. I, however, build my trains 8 studs wide (...)
