(...) I got 6 of these from the 3 box I bought. And yes these are great for train couplers. I was just wishing for such a peice about 2 weeks ago. Pity it's not in dk grey or black. Mat (21 years ago, 8-Nov-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts)

I picked up a few of the 4562 200+200 bonus piece sets from Walgreens a couple of days ago. These bonus type sets are definately great fun and I hope LEGO do more of them. In 12 of the 18 sets I got, there was a strange new part, just like this one: (...) (21 years ago, 31-Oct-04, to lugnet.general, lugnet.parts)
