After having another look, I am not too sure now, I am stuck in-between. You
guys are going to have to connive me.
If this is the True Lego picture
It would be great, but why is there some mistakes in the picture. I now
believe that this is a hoax for April 1st or it has been leaked out of Lego
and somebody has tempered with it.
I also believe it's a prototype for the new trains, the are so many new
parts in the pictures. Like the train wheels and different colour parts,
also like Larry said you might as well use old stickers and things before
you make the final product. A common example was the 8448 Super car, I have
prototype pictures for these.
So I am pointing to the direction that there is light at the end of the
tunnel for the train fans like Larry and his friends. And I will enjoy it
these do come out.
