For that you might think about using shop @ home and get some blue doors and
/or blue windows, and getting a couple of train car kits...I bought one

Hey Dave,
Don't listen to Calum....hint...hint....unless you seriously want to design
your own trains. Like I mentioned earlier, the Metroliner is a must buy
set....especially with the club car....also the Freight and Crane is still
available from Shop @ Home....another highly recommended set to buy....
....or you can wait until the fall and (hopefully) be able to pick up the
highly anticipated Trainset from the Harry Potter line (oops...did I say that)
...the Hogwarts Express Train!!
I don't know if you are into that at all...I've read the first two, and from
a literature point of view, the books were quite well...the only thing I
dislike about the series is the focus on using magic...I believe magic is
possible, but don't believe in practising it...I believe it is sinful (to
practise magic arts).
I like the stories though, especially the Quidditch match. A soccor-type
sport with Broomsticks.....
some more of my opinions....hopefully not shared by all members of society,
Benjamin Medinets
