In less than 3 days, a Metroliner car auction is closing...but I was looking
forward in putting in a last minute bid, and see what happens....a few
"extra" coaches would certainly look good in my collection....

You're lucky I realized that was you bidding Ben. I was trying to bid on
that item too, and was waiting to snipe it with 2min remaining when I
realized it was you with the high bid.
I hope you enjoy your extra coach & engine, and I hope the glue comes off
without too much trouble.
And on that note, NO MORE HOGGING ALL THE METROLINERS! I gotta get one
you know. <grin>
TTYL. Play well.

Oh...I HIGHLY doubt I'll be putting any bids for any metroliners...unless
(until) it comes out in the legends line...then maybe I'll buy one.
Tim, rest assured no more 4558 purchases for me...I'm still looking for a
4547 Club Car....
....and some additional train accessories.  I have one train station
and one on the way, I'd like a couple more...as well as some different
train level-crossings...the motorized gates would be most ideal.
For the LRT line, I'm looking at probably getting two 4561's and using the
bases and other pieces to start a go-train type rolling stock.  Just something
in the near future.

I think my soccor stadium module will definitely look nice...I just won 2 head
tribune sets on E-bay yesterday, and only need to get 2 light/grandstand
sets...
I have the original soccer challenge set, supersport coverage, 2 regular
grandstands, 2 light grandstands, 2 buses, as well as a world cup press
box...

And contrary to belief, I will only bring 2 full-size modules, or 4
small ones, one being the soccer stadium, another with a small commercial
area, a residential area, and a train "spur" (a small train yard).

Actually, you want to know the irony of the situation...I was "expecting"
someone to trump the bid...<gee, you should have said you were interested...>

oh and I got a real laugh when you told me to stop hogging the metroliners...
now I don't have to worry as much about building "ULTRA-LINER"
The only problem besides not having another club car, is my "town layout",
as in my dream lego-city and not the city for rtl, is that there may not be
enough rail line to make a train that big in the city.  I'll have 10 cars,
including 2 Club Cars.  That, and I'll have to modify them so that I'll
have 5 coaches instead of 2...(one with the skylight, so it can be considered
an "observation-car"
