Now when I hear young kids playing with the stuff, interest is quickly lost if they can't add guns or missiles (...) (24 years ago, 18-Jan-01, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.general, lugnet.build)

  Fanciful LEGO train speculation
 
No, not DCC. No, no new geometry. No, there will be no large wheels for steam trains. In fact, scrap the wheels all together. Wheels are so 20th century! I think LEGO is going to release a line of mag-lev trains! OK, maybe not. Good night, Chris (24 years ago, 18-Jan-01, to lugnet.trains)
