Hi,
I browsed the s@h when I saw this on the kit K4519 Cross Track Kit :
http://shop.lego.com/product.asp?p=K4519
“Will not work with circle track found in #4511 High Speed Train Kit & #K4511
Passenger Train Kit.”
I watched the details, and yes, with only the kit K4519 and the tracks of the
train 4511, it’s impossible to make the layout which is showed on the pics (
only on the larger image) : it’s missing 2 straight tracks. But I think the
warning is not appropriate : we can think that the tracks from the kit are
not compatible with the tracks and/or the motor from the train set (it was my
first reaction). Even if we buy this kit, we can make a bigger layout, which
would be different from the exemple.
I believe it’s a bad error of communication.

I just passed this (very good) comment on to the legoshop.com team. I’ve heard
back that this is on their to-do list and they’re working on improving it.
Thanks for the heads up!
