Hi Gail!
I stumbled across this set online recently and mentioned it to our LUGNET
train-fans here: http://news.lugnet.com/trains/?n=23177 I think you're right
about the $50US guess--it'll retail for about $49.99, give or take.
Thanks for the info! If you see the set on store shelves, please let us know.
Dave!
