FBTB has another shot of the engine from the NY Toy Fair, and you can see
the plow piece if you look very carefully:

the image of the roof popping off the loco, I think it has square buffers!
It looks to be a new train part... cool.

You can
see the original images by clicking on the slide show images.  In the case
of the 4512 images, the original images are enormous!

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 attached to the front of the 9v train
motor?  Or, is that a new buffer/magnet/scoop all-one-piece element?  The
buffers either side of the magnet look, to me, a little more "squarish".
But, maybe that is just a "trick" of glare or something in the picture?

Love these big images!  Thanks.

later,
James Mathis
