Ben, Thanks for the reply. Saved me $5 x 2 admission to the thing. I really look forward to seeing a PNLTC-style Lego layout in person someday. This might be another topic - but it seems to me like Lego is putting a bit more emphasis on trains this (...) (25 years ago, 22-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

The Great American Train show is steaming into the Ft. Washington Convention Center in suberban Philadelphia this weekend. I want to go, but my wife and I already have a packed weekend and I'm mostly interested only in Lego trains. Given that, is it (...) (25 years ago, 22-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)

There probably isn't one chance in a million of TLG re-releasing 4558 and 4547 ... but I'd sure like to see a *new* train set that can be "mixed and matched" with the 4558. Different loco and cars, but the same gray primary color with red, white & (...) (25 years ago, 21-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)
