Good point. The 6691 Monorail Transport Base is Space/Unitron, and the 6399 Airport Shuttle is Town/Flight yet both are monorails - similar to trains (i.e. bi-rails?). I think the Lego Group should be consistant. The existing line of trains ARE (...) (23 years ago, 17-Jul-01, to lugnet.events.brickfest, lugnet.trains)

I was planning to release some custom craftmans kits for the Metroliner. But now with the pending release of the Legend version, I'm not sure it will generate more or less of a demand. Certainly the pricing from what I had in mind will be lower. The (...) (23 years ago, 16-Jul-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.market.buy-sell-trade)
