...right.
Definitly a nice add-on for kids’ layout. AFOLs will probably made their own
mods.
With the new tracks system (non metal tracks), new parts are easier (read
cheaper) to produce. This first one is maybe the beginning of a whole new serie
of exciting track geometry.
large radius curve ? Y switches (points) ? half straight ?
what else ?
what would you appreciate...or not?
