    Re: economics of set 3225 —Larry Pieniazek
   It's not a caboose. A caboose has a cupola or a bay window, or at least, a work area for the conductor. It's not a pullman. A pullman has beds, washrooms, a porter's office, etc. It's a coach.

        Re: economics of set 3225 —Bryan Kinkel
   OK. It is a coach. Larry, have you seen the spring S@H catalog?

     Hay, The TLG has been wrong for years! Long before Town Jr. just look at some of the old S@H catalogs. Robin :) P.S. I like this set(3225) good parts at good price but I think they can do better. (...) (26 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)
   
        Re: economics of set 3225 —Matthew Bates
   (...) While we're being pedantic, it's not TLG that is wrong, it's the US Lego Shop at Home service that is wrong. S@H may be part of TLG but it is not TLG. S@H (and LEGO Systems Inc of North America) seem to make up their own names for things (...) (26 years ago, 5-Mar-99, to lugnet.trains)
