(...) As it turns out, I've come upon this kit at a local TRU. The steam engine is indeed $49.99 and looks to be 14 wide, unless I miscounted. I know nothing of trains, but if a train-head happens to see the set, I'd be interested to hear a more (...) (20 years ago, 1-Sep-04, to lugnet.off-topic.clone-brands, lugnet.trains)

Is this the same locomotive (I mean the design) from Jake's Getting started with Lego Trains book? I am assuming it is his MOC? Just curious, I asked this earlier with no replies. Hope someone can elucidate this time! - Ram - (20 years ago, 31-Aug-04, to lugnet.trains)
