Seeing the other 1592 variations has inspired me to create a 1592
alternate in the best theme of all - TRAIN!  Also it uses alot of
minifigs with my favorite torso pattern.

LMKWYT.  Enjoy!

Now that is one COOL moc.
I think that, other than the 9-volt track and perhaps a few of the
decorated parts, it really captures the spirit of the Golden Age of lego
train (the 4.5v/12v grey track era)

That's what I was going for - I really like the grey era set style.  I
tried to be careful to not use any new minifig faces/torsos and stick to
the basic style... although a few 9V items slipped in.

The tricky part was figuring out how to lay the track so it sort of
resembled the original configuration of roads.  I originally tried it
with more curved track, but I think my final layout works well.
