That is a screaming deal. Thanks. I’m curious as to why 4561 isn’t highly

recent Super Chief is great looking but I tend to keep sets together for such a
short period of time that it ends up rarely being worth the cost.
And the next question I have: do all the new sets (like this 65537) have track
in the new dark gray or the old? I probably don’t even want to touch this color
issue, do I?

| (...) The easy no brainer is the 65537 My Own Train Classic Freight Train, which has upwards of $165 worth of stuff and sells for under $80 (try <www.brickbros.net>). See (URL) for more info. Welcome back! -Ted (20 years ago, 30-Nov-04, to lugnet.trains, FTX)
