Hmm... Nice catch, James! It sure looks like a snowplow you might find on
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 reason the containers that all have the word "cargo" on them
make me laugh. :-)
