That would be great to go to eight wide trains. The only thing that I would
want is for TLC to make available the pieces necessary to upgrade the old
trains. Things like nose pieces, replacement motors, and wagon plates. I'm I
missing anything? I don't think this would be a large number of pieces. You
could even sell parts packs to upgrade specific sets (not to mention a way to
get some of the more rare pieces!).
