The whole concept of a train event is awesome!!! I hope this event goes
extremely well, so it can continue for a while.
I don't exactly share Iain's enthusiasm about having a "speed track"....the
residents of my "town" like peace and quiet but also like the getting to
other "towns" in a reasonable amount of time....
this should be interesting the way it is looking up to be.....there is
going to be at least 3 to 6 guaranteed participants with several others that
might also show up with town/train sets....
I'm still deciding what I want to take....I just got a Breezeway Cafe and
am having a hard time deciding if I want to break the inner packages and
make it, or just leave it as an unmade toy....decisions, decisions!!!
I think I will bring the freight rail runner, maybe a few other accessories
like the train station and a level crossing...as far as the town elements????
