| I'm glad to see the 4519 crossover at last, shows some commitment to trains by LEGO. Also I quite like the 4541 Road N' Rail Cherry Picker Truck, I'll definitely get one of those. The 4561 Railway Express, on the other hand, is absolutely terrible, (...) (26 years ago, 7-Dec-98, to lugnet.trains)
