(...) I'd be amazed if they were printed, in fact, doesn't the illustration suggest they aren't? Frank (24 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.trains)
 
  Re: Train Windows and Doors
 
(...) It will be interesting to see if the gray train doors are plain gray, or striped. As for people complaining about the black wagon plate, black is a great color. Besides, you can easially fake wagon plates. It's real hard to fake train doors (...) (24 years ago, 22-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.trains)

(...) Ya, that's it. If I wanted Soccer balls there are sets that offer them for less on a per ball basis (assuming all the other parts are valueless) Actually Soccer balls were one of the things I was planning on selling from that set.

  Re: Train Windows and Doors
 
(...) Well, it looks like someone is already planning on trying to capitalize on this, or is dumping their grey train windows now before their value plumets. Look for grey train windows on eBay, three auctions of 10 each just showed up today. Frank (24 years ago, 21-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.trains)

  Re: Selling my LEGO inventory
 
Dude! Just because you are going away for a while doesn't mean you have to sell off! Box it up and store it somewhere-- *some* day you'll be glad you did (or your future son/daughter/niece/nephew will;-) Think about it at least. -John (...)

  Re: Train Windows and Doors
 
This is the best news from LEGO in a while. Sounds like they're listening to what the train community has been asking for. And the prices are reasonable too. And it's nice to see a different color for the base plate beside the red. -- James J. (...) (24 years ago, 21-Oct-00, to lugnet.market.shopping, lugnet.trains)

  Re: Train Windows and Doors
 
Great news, but it is typical lego to offer the train base in BLACK, but to only offer the doors and windows in BLUE and GRAY. Would be nice to be able to build SOMETHING in all the same color....
