There's the slogan "All New Silver Bricks!" and the arrow goes to a 1x2
brick with grille

But I can't see if all these 1x2 bricks are silver or only one per car/set.


Fine set of cars. But as for the 'silver': I fear those bricks are molded in
the new swirly plastic that is supposed to look metallic, but actually looks
like really cheap plastic. May still be nice for a change as opposed to
regular bricks, but not half als great as actual chromed pieces, especially
for these train cars.

As for the windows; TLG may prefer thin panels here because they are much
cheaper (single part) than classic train windows (two parts).

(...) Holy Cow!! *That* would be AWESOME!!! Also, it appears to me as if the end car uses *clear* macaronis, as I have done here: (URL) also would be cool:-) -John (22 years ago, 3-Jul-02, to lugnet.trains)
