  Inferior bricks in 10025

(...) Ah, but that's the softer pneumatic pipes, not the harder flex-system tubing. (Although they could be the same now, as I haven't seen a pneumatic set since they introduced double-acting cylinders). Jason J Railton (22 years ago, 12-Sep-02, to lugnet.build, lugnet.trains)
