Well from the service packs they have for trains right now idicates anything.
You wont get a wide selection of color, just look at the train plate, one
color. I think if we just do a train window pack. Because for trains they have
it were you can get wheels or cuplers, boogie plates, ect. So I could see just
a window pack and just a door pack. Color will be the hardest thing for them
to dicide. But evertime the color idea comes up everone has there own little
project they want to finish. So they vote for that color they need for there
current project. Now I would love to have a blue pack to finish a train I have
been working on. But maybe if they do it like they do the brick packs, were
you can select a color. So one pack but you get it in the color of your
choice. (well of what color they have to choose from). Just my idea.
But I do agree that a letter campain might get TLG to decide on more sevice
packs.
