Where in the world will these sets be available. S@H in the US has a note that they are not available in the US. -Juan (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains)

(...) No as already mentioned. The Passenger Car has an added "Timmy" minifig, not included with the 4511 set. I wonder if Lego will put out the box car from the 4512 Cargo Train kit... (crosses my fingers and hopes) :) Benjamin Medinets (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains)

(...) They're both the same price, and no, it doesn't. Does anyone know for definite about the greys yet though? Is the original old grey, and these sets new grey? Have they tripped at the last fence _again_? Jason R (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Agreed, I'd only get the HP train if you are into the series and don't have the push train already. IN my opinion the train isn't a good build. While the CT is an excelent build for an out of the box 6 stud train. The metroliner is also nice, (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains)

(...) Nope, I missed the opportunity. I saw it and wished I had the money back then. I tried the code just in case after I read your note but no dice. And while it is only a three day drive from Victoria to LLCA I don't think the wife would go for (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains)

(...) I've been running Mark Reiley's LDCC on omy layout at home and at rtlToronto train shows--my 9v train motors seem to still be just fine. I occasionally take 'em apart and clean the contacts and such, and put a squirt of graphite on the various (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains)

I recently completed a few projects and have to thank the community for being such a great resource. I must admit that I held off tackling these for some time. Here's a link to the first round of postings: (URL) hope to have a shelf layout started (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains)

George- LLCA has reopened the tent sale and was selling Metroliners for under $80. (You might see if S@H is still selling 2 or more for 50% off). All you need to add is a voltage regulator (under $2.00 on BrickLink), track connector wire, and power (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains)

Guido- I wouldn't get too concerned with the "long term" affects of PWM on LEGO train motors for a variety of reasons: 1. TLC already uses PWM in the RCXs 2. LEGO train motors don't last all that long anyway (we kill a lot of them running trains 5 (...) (20 years ago, 21-Jul-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
