Hi Larry,

Nice set. I like the color scheme, and the details on the transformer
are cool. That car really shines when you show it off between Eric's
engine and caboose!

Thanks, but I'd just leave it at "All three are nifty models". I'm still
hoping Eric decides to commericalise that pair of B&M models!

I wasn't trying to imply anyting about the quality of any of the sets. I
think all three are top notch. The thing I find especially pleasing is
the color scheme. To me the white highlighted blue engine and caboose
around the blue car with the transformer look more pleasing than when
the blue car with transformer is surrounded by other color models.

That is all,
Chris
