| | | | | I scanned the transcript of the session with Brad Justus and remember reading that 1 through 5 were set aside. I didn't see anything about them being auctioned on eBay. Did I just miss that comment? For some reason, I was under the impression that (...) (23 years ago, 28-Feb-02, to lugnet.trains)

| | | | | | | I remember it as LEGO was going to auction them - probably on eBay - and donate the procedes to charity, the same way they did with the giant minifigs, behind-the-scenes LEGOLAND tour, former display model and whatever else that I can't remember (...)

| | | | | | Maybe the 10,000th 10020 SF Engine won't come with a small red 2X1 tile with the production number on it, but with A. A larger Tile, possibly a 4X1 smooth tile with the LEGO logo on it and the production number next to it (both on the same tile) B. (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.trains)

Just another speculative theory: Maybe Brad just meant they took the first 5 ever produced engines out of the production, not the numbers 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004, 0005 (which would lead to the problem with the too big number of 10000.) So they (...) (23 years ago, 1-Mar-02, to lugnet.trains)

I agree, but I'll go one step further and predict that there will not be (or rather there is not, since they're already been made) a #0000 OR a #10000 but that they will run from 0000 to 9999, making 9999 of more "value" than 0005 - at least (...)
