Something to chew on: If we hit the NMRA hard with Lego trains, and get a NMRA Sig for Lego trains, perhaps we would have an organization which could get into TLGs promotional set arena, and get a train bucket produced, along with some limited (...) (25 years ago, 25-May-99, to lugnet.trains)

The service pack thread has my undies in a bunch. Why? Because it is as if we are asking for *so* much, when in reality it is *so* little.

What I don't understand is this: Why is it *so* obvious to us (consumers) what is needed and *so* obscure to them (the sellers whose job it is to produce products the consumers want) what is wanted??!!

If that is what TLG uses for logic behind packs, why in the world would it come out with RES-Q, UFO, etc.? Trains as just as viable a theme as anything else, but probably the most neglected in terms of building anything other than flatbed rail cars. (...) (25 years ago, 25-May-99, to lugnet.trains)
