Say WHAAAAAAT?  The 5542 is new for 98, why would they discontinue it already?

Geez, if they ARE discontinued, I'd better order 3 or 4 of them to split up for
parts.

anybody knew where I could get them for less than $44 each.  They are not on
eToys.  It doesn't have to be an online store.  Also looking for the Cargo
Railway for less than $110 if anybody has any tips.

According to a local Lego guy who works in a toy store, the 5542 is
discontinued, so you shouldn't expect to see it restocked in stores.  I think a
couple of local toy stores still have one or two each, but they're $40 plus 8%
NYS sales tax--not much of a savings over S@H.
