(Pirates.  Pfft.  Whatever :)

Number 1 rated set on BrickSet? 6285 Black Seas Barracuda. The two most
wanted sets on BrickLink? 6285* and 6286 Skull's Eye Schooner. Don't see any
'bogie plates' in those two! :))

One really easy way to get
around this though, is to find a cheap 4561.  It has a lot of the stuff
you're looking for, like the motor, track, speed reg, magnets, buffers,
wheelsets etc.
Sears Clearance had them from time to time-I know Dave may have had some
success finding them off the Sears.ca website for like $90.

It does seem like a nice starter set. It is definitely worth buying *if*
it's on sale. Unfortunately I don't usually have much luck with "being in
the right place at the right time", mainly due to a lack of a vehicle to
shuttle me between Toronto, Cookstown, and Brampton.

So pretty much the offer still stands -

Plz let me know if anyone is willing to sell any of those pieces, just so I
can figure out what's left to be ordered through BrickLink. If you feel the
price isn't fair I can sure budge a bit ;)) Also there is no rush on
"delivery" - if you can bring them to the next dinner that's all I'm asking.

*One can sure get a lot of trains for the price of a single MISB 6285 (not
to say I have one)
