Hello!
Excuse me for being dense, but I'd like to make sure I understand this:

So if I'd give my kids the HP train, they'd have to cannibalize their existing
9V set in order to put the HP on the rails (not to mention motorization)?
Or I'd have to buy more 9V-set parts??
And that at a price of FIM 390 (ca. US$ 65), for the HP set??
And tracks fitting the unmodified HP train do not exist at all???
Talk about synergy...
If that is true, I'm glad I found and read this thread before I bought..
(I also think that the box is then pretty misleading: It has an icon showing
tracks with a red X over them, so you know no tracks included. That's ok, of
course, but they are indistinguishable*) from 9V tracks, and lead one to assume
those will do nicely...)
*) for LEGO-muggles at least...
Thanks for any info / advice.
Best regards,
Daddy Mutter
