I agree.  The 7740 rules.  I paid out the wazoo for mine but it is by far my
favorite train.  I also shucked out for the additional sleeper car and don't
regret it one bit.  I love all of the windows both yellow and grey.  This is
definitely a classic legend and who cares if they replace the engine with
9volt and add on the newer train wheels.  Heck, I replaced all of mine with
updated wheels anyways to give it less resistance on the track.
