   However, I disagree with you when you say “nothing (good) is happening with it.” Assuming LEGO Factory is a success (and I really hope/think it will be), once LEGO Train Factory launches, a whole new door will be opened! The MOC line aside (Sante Fe train cars, Blacksmith Shop, etc.), this will be the first time that AFOLs (and kids) will be able to design and purchase what they want. If you like someone else’s design, you’re entitled to buy that instead!

To me, that is a good thing (and I’m not even a big train fan)...

Bryan-

Ah, we are not quite communicating., I’m saying nothing good is happening with 9V train components, the stuff that handles 9VDC that makes the “hobby train” system as opposed to the “play train” system. Specifically, I mean motors, rails, switches, track connector wires, regulators, and power bricks. I’m sure we can’t design our own wires, motors, lights, regulators, or power bricks with LEGO Factory

(...) Ahhh ok I get what you're saying. Strange thing is, I did think to myself - what if Ted is actually referring to the individual 9V components themselves? -Bryan (19 years ago, 16-Aug-05, to lugnet.trains, FTX)

(...) Ted, I'm sure all of us will agree that 9V train stuff is expensive. That means most retail stores (apart from LEGO stores and independent toy store) will avoid stocking these items except maybe during the Christmas season. So you're right in (...)
