Hi, It is not unusual to find some of these older sets, especially partial sets. But to find a working 118 with the whistle, is in my opinion, the hardest and rarest one to find as well as the 139a which was the electronic unit only. I wish to find (...) (24 years ago, 16-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I decided to have a looksee at my windows. All of my white 1x3x2s are the old style. It looks to me like the little holes are for tabs on the "glass" to insert into - in fact I'm sure of it, just looked at a 1x6x2 window with shutters which (...)

(...) Ben, don't you have some even rarer sets? You know, very old ones that not even Lego knew about back in the 1960s? All joking aside, the rarety of a set does not represent it's worth, either as a model or as a desirable set - hence the 4558, (...) (24 years ago, 15-Sep-00, to lugnet.trains)
