(...) lol, We'll see:-) (...) Thanks. I think I can field the RCX question-- there are 2 light sensors pointing down on the track. They will see a white plate laid down on each end of the track which will tell them to cut power and reverse. You'll (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, lugnet.trains, FTX)

I still haven't found any of the engine actually in the loco so (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Yes! There will probably at least two of these added to our collection. When was the last time we could get a Crocodile for $100 (+ $20 for a motor)...and this one is an even bigger Crocodile? And still have lots of parts left over. Let's do (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.trains)

I would pay $100 just for the right to download 30 sets of building instructions. Come on, people, this is a gold mine. Make it successful and we'll see Ultimate Train Set #2. "9V trains are going away! Wah!!!" "I haven't seen this new set up close (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.trains)

(...) And so it begins.....You'll have to change your corner store to the 12 wide Emporium. I loved Mr. Rogers as a kid and it was mostly due to Trolley and the Land of Make Believe. This is a very nicely done model, as usual. I'm curious as to how (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.trains.org.tcltc, lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Well I agree it is a little misleading even with the little pic with the red X, but I still think there's a pretty good selection of parts for the price. I really hope the cost to Aus isn't 1.5x the cost to the US like most sets on S@H though. (...) (18 years ago, 19-Feb-07, to lugnet.trains)
