1) There are LEGO fans who only collect just minifigs.
2) The set would be a great gift to train fans not just LEGO fans. I am talking about current or even retired employees who worked for TTX and BNSF.  In other words sell the set if they have a company store.   An example would the Maersk Sealand boat or any other promotional sets.

I was thinking of the brand and image of all three companies : LEGO, TTX and
BNSF.

That's all for now.  :)
