You know, I was looking at the Duplo trains (catalog is actually sitting next to
me, and opened to that page). I think that they have improved the Duplo trains.
I like the new one better than the old one. It has great accessories, another
passenger car would be nice, and it looks like a lot of fun. I was think that
this was a good sign for LEGO trains. Maybe the next release of the regular LEGO
trains will also be an improvement as compared to the other recent releases.
Here is to wishful thinking.
