(...) The fact that the shows are already being put on is not direct 'support', but it is a *huge* boost to LTCs. (...) Cons are good, but people don't go to cons to see displays (I think). Brikwars would be good for cons. Or any other brickgame. It (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains.org)

(...) That would be a nice loss-maker for TLC, wouldn't it? Just as LD gets more people interested in trains, TLC doubles the prices of motors and controllers. Or perhaps they're bringing out a new track and motor system compatible with the (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)

(...) That is an interesting guess, Harvey. I really don't know why they would discontinue the motor, they just put out My Own Train, and are dependant on the motor for marketibilty. What a unique concept though with the my own train. You get a (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)

On page 41 in the new S@H catalog the 9V Train Motor (5300) is noted with a "Limited Quantities, Order Now" note. Usually this means that something has gone out of production. Any speculation as to why this would be discontinued? Mike -- Mike Walsh (...) (23 years ago, 6-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains)
