I think if they were to reissue old sets, it would be neat if they changed them somewhat. I know creating a new piece would add to the cost, but.... just think how many US-centric people would buy a Metroliner with 1x4xTWO windows in it! They (...) (24 years ago, 31-Jul-00, to lugnet.trains)

Beautiful models! Thank you for posting links. Please pass my compliments to the builders. I really enjoyed seeing the window treatment from such a non-window element on the cab of some of the black steam engines. Very clever! later, James Mathis (...) (24 years ago, 28-Jul-00, to lugnet.trains)
