An intresting discussion started here. I was thinking about it last night;
about US or EU trains, diesel, electric or steam and colours. As a kid I had
the 162 ( http://guide.lugnet.com/set/162 ) which was pretty cool 'cos you
could make 6 different models with it!
Now our friend (and hero) James M. did something in the same line with the
SF cars/wagons; a set from which you can build 3 different models.
This could be applied to locs; a set with loads of pieces (a train base of
course, 4 doors, 2 pantographs, (inverted) slopes) in one colour + some
plates in a totally different colour for stripping (this will be a Dutch
English word which will mean something totally different for you
English/American people, if so, I'm sorry). Now this set could be sold in
say 5 different (esoteric, not the obvious red please) colours, like an
orange train with green details, a brown train with yellow details, a blue
train with with details, dark grey and pink, etc. In that way you can mix
and match and build your own locs, be it electric, diesel, US or European.
Erm, that's it actually.
