The problem is that the ONLY piece I want out of those sets is the train nose, I
don' even want the rest of the set near me ;-)

I don't know if you'd be interested, but I've been holding onto a couple
of those sets (6493). They're MISB with a little shelf wear.
I picked them up in the hopes of one day doing exactly what you plan to,
but since the likeliness of me getting my hands on a 4558 are slim, I
could be tempted to sell or trade them.

Speaking of Time Suckers, does anyone have a couple of the grey train noses • out of
6493 Flying Time Vessel they'd want to trade/sell?  I have them on my Wants • page at

Now that I FINALLY own a 4558, I want to put grey noses on it (NO, I need to • keep
the black ones for a black 4558).

How useful, as far as "train" parts go? I think the only thing useful in the
whole lot for "train" is the log wall pieces as lumber cargo for a flatbed • car.
Other than that, who knows.

Hello!

I'm an AFOL who's waiting on his first LEGO train set to show up in
the mail this week. I noticed that S@H has 6497 on special this week
and I was wondering how useful it is for parts. Is there anything
useful in this set?

Thanks!

Fred.

It's a pity that the set didn't come with a pirate ship hull middle segment. Pirate nuts would have been snapping the set up to get hull segments, and the train fans could have gone in with them to get the train nose elements. -- jthompson@esker.com (...)
