The rare trainbase seems to be the prototype for the trainbase, which is listed
as x902c01 on peeron. Recently I received two of these parts and I have just
finished an LDraw part, posted in message http://news.lugnet.com/cad/?n=10884.
The sliding wheel parts are on my to-do list, so Thomas can soon recreate his
train models using the actual pieces.
Play well,
Niels
