The Ultimate First Train Set: the 65537 My Own Train Classic Freight Train!

Here is the ultimate train kit! A very rare official set that you will be hard pressed to find anywhere else! We repeat, this is not a homemade BrickBros bundle like most of our other Train sets, this is an official set! In this set you get some awesome stuff:
  • - Large Blue Steam Engine & Tender (1 set)
  • - 10017 Hopper Wagon (1 set)
  • - 10013 Open Frieght Wagon (1 set)
  • - 10153 Train Motor (1 set)
  • - 4548 Speed Regulator (1 set)
  • - 4515 8 Straight Rails (1 set)
  • - 4520 8 Curved Rails (2 sets)
That is correct, everything you need is there! And check out that price! The package is worth $165.99 at retail price and you are getting it all for only $79.99, just under 50% off! We have extreamly limited quantities of this item, so get it while you can at this awesome price!

That is a KILLER price on a complete train set. $80 is MSRP even! Shoot, most of the TRU clearance train sets in the past haven’t been as good a value. I am pretty darned excited about getting me one of these. How about you all?

Yes, I own the web site, but I posted this here at LUGNET out of excitement. I have known about this new set for three weeks but haven’t been allowed to say anything. As far as I know, only independant stores will be allowed to order this. This should rule out even S@H. Right now, my store is the only one with it for sale online. It will ship on or around October 15th.

Interesting set. I’m curious about the “only independent stores will be allowed to order this” comment. Anyone have any guesses if LEGO Train Clubs might be able to order some to sell at shows? At the $80 price point, that’s almost in the ‘impulse purchase’ range for the typical train show attendee!

And I’m sure we wouldn’t use any of them just for parts... No, we’d never do that... ;-)
