Hi Eric,
Hi Bryan,
Hi all,
you are right, we are under NDA and I will not comment on any posting either
positive or negative about the train announcement.
We AFOL insiders will read all theses posts and we will transport any suggestion
into our internal forums. And yes, some thoughts and ideas sound familiar and
others are new for us.
It would be helpful, if we can set up a public "wishlist" for the new train
system where only uncommented wishes are posted. Later someone could set up a
poll to find out the most desired components for a new train system.
All, remember we are still talking about a toy train which is abused (in a
positive way) by LEGO fans to set up huge model-train layouts. This was and will
be the challenge when AFOLs use LEGO elements and especially LEGO train
elements.
Please remember, AFOL insiders are consultants and not decision makers. As I
know it from the Hobby Train Project there is always a bigger number of requests
then solutions coming to the shelfs in the end.

| It sounds like a survey is in order... Take all the feature wish lists from individuals and clubs, boil them down and prioritize them. I'm sure LEGO and the AFOL insiders have their own set of lists based on the tons of feedback from lugnet.trains, (...) (17 years ago, 3-Oct-07, to lugnet.trains)
