This is the best news from LEGO in a while. Sounds like they're listening to
what the train community has been asking for. And the prices are reasonable

goood... but hey, now if you want a train baseplate you have to buy all
the wheels and couplers with it, and if you don't want bases you have to

buying theings SEPARATELY instead of all lumped together in SERVICE
PACKS where you didn't want half the stuff?


Ahh, but that's NOT bulk. It's the new breed of Service Packs. Lego has always
tossed in extras to keep the price relative. Only now, the relative price is MUCH

They are a Mega Corp after all.
