(...) Oh, man! Thanks! I hadn't realized this. Now I have a question for everyone. Sorry if I've missed this in another message thread... What is the black piece beneath the buffer on the front of the 4512 freight locomotive? Is that a new element (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) most 'North American' locomotives... If that's what it turns out to be, I consider that a good sign that Lego is starting to recognize the fact that not all trains look like European models. (Can we get the 8-wide version? <grin>) And for some (...) (22 years ago, 28-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Another interesting one I noticed. Apparently in LEGOworld people are really tall. Notice the 11 1/3 M clearance label on the crane? I'm pretty sure the clearance is 11 bricks and one plate... So therefore, 1 brick height equals 1 M. Or maybe (...) (22 years ago, 29-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

Wow, I think your right! And I think their at both ends of the loco? The buffers do look square, look at the same image, way down at the bottom... the image of the roof popping off the loco, I think it has square buffers! It looks to be a new train (...) (22 years ago, 29-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)

Something that I just noticed is that the 4512 locomotive truly looks like it resembles set 4564's engine. Is this the same engine only different colors and a different removable top? And, 4511 has some strange lights on the front of the engine. The (...) (22 years ago, 30-Mar-03, to lugnet.trains)
