   Assuming it is *financially viable*, why can’t LEGO have introductory train sets for children and more complex electronic sets for teenagers and adults? Isn’t that what LEGO does with their current product line?

They already do that. Duplo trains for children, 9 volt for those up to 11 or so. After 12, it’s all rock ‘n roll, girls, and video games, and girls.

“Adults” are supposed to move on to model railroading;-)

Been there, done that... didn’t like it, came here instead.
