I'm gonna go ahead and rule DCC out of this one. After all, TLC markets to
kids and DCC would be too much of a challenge to them. I'm assuming that
there was a printing error in the S@H catalog, I think we'll be seeing the
9V motor for quite a while. Perhaps LEGO® will be adding that third wheel in
the middle where the current axle hole is? -Harvey
