John -

I think Paul's referring to the two extra 2x6x2 windshields that come
with the classic train set #3225.  They're used for alternate models.

Hmm...another reason to buy it. Are the 2x6x2'a clear or are they clear blue?
Are there any other special parts that are not shown in the picture.

Thanks,
Chris

Is it me or are you woozie with 2x6x2 fever?  Are you thinking of the 4565?

There has been alot of talk about the classic train again lately, so I
grabbed my shop at home catalogu to give it a look.

First, I still do not like it based the same reasons everyone else
doesn't like it, but economically...

3 pairs of wheel sets at $3.50              = 10.50
4 pairs of magnetic couplers at 3.50  = 14.00
1 train engine                                          = 27.50

spare parts alone....                               $ 52.00
Which leaves $14 for the rest of the model (counting minifigs at $1 ea)
we are down to $11 for the rest of the model.

Oh why oh why did they put blue glass in the coach! If it was clear I
would not be debating my next purchase!

PS Is it still available? The first time I saw it was in December, but
it is a special set so normal rules about sale life expectancy to do not
apply.

You can make it even more economical if you sell off the extra 2x6x2
windshields to someone like me.
