Hello@all, I didn't found something about #10022 and #10025 in the LUGNET, so I think this is interesting for train fans: (URL) will be two new sets for the Santa Fe Train available in September: #10022; 411 pieces; $34.99: For building a Dining (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains) !!

(...) Way cool. Of course I'll need more than 5 of these because they need to be "stretched" quite a bit. Something like 50% more should do the trick... that will give room to expand the trucks a bit too. (22 years ago, 2-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

Hello Huw, (...) There's another picture above the scanned part where the cars are in a 3D-view. So, yes, it's right, the roofs are built with 3x2 curved bricks. Also the windows are clear panels 1x2x2. There's the slogan "All New Silver Bricks!" (...) (22 years ago, 2-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Wow, I love them! And I think it's a good strategy by Lego Direct to create 5 different cars but put the bricks in just 2 different sets.

It looks as if the bases are 32 studs long - which is a new size, we have had 24 & 28 before. David (22 years ago, 3-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I called US S@H inquiring about set #10025, and the sales rep said: "It looks like they will be available next week." The scanned catalog said #10022 will be available in September so I didn't ask about that one. Looks like S@H will receive (...) (22 years ago, 3-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)
