A toy store in the UK by the name of Busy Bee got some old stock from
somewhere. Busy Bee will ship to the US but shipping is rather expensive,
on my order it was about 40% of the total price and cheaper shipping options
were not available. If you want to order your own I would call soon. I
ordered six of the Blue Hopper cars yesterday morning and the lady told me
they only had twelve left. I am not sure if that was before or after my
order for six and she didn't know if they would get any more in. The number
I used is +44 (0)161-881-3906 (leave out the "0" when calling from the US).
It took me at least half a dozen tries to get through as their phone was
busy. My inquires about other old stock were for naught although they
believe thet will get a few 2150 Retrostations in sometime in late October.

| Well, I hope they had more than just the 12 you mentioned, because I ordered 20 of them. They told me to call back and they would let me know how many I got, so I am assuming they are out now and just have to find out how short they are on their (...) (25 years ago, 1-Oct-99, to lugnet.trains)
