read it now! The firmest endorsement I've ever heard from Lego that new
trains are coming!

What is the opinion of lugnet.trains?  Is there any hope that this
announcement by Jake McKee:

"Although I can't say much at this point, let's just say that
this is only the beginning of a great deal of Train activity throughout 2001
and beyond!"

could possibly include DCC controlled trains, switches, etc?

I really don't care what they change, as long as they don't change the scale
of the track.  Replacing my track (except switches) is the ONE thing I don't
want to do.  Everything else is reasonable.

Looking at what Playmobil did some years ago, a likely 'major change' of Trains is replacing the expensive metal tracks by plastic track (like Duplo train) and have the trains battery-powered & radio-controlled. Eric (24 years ago, 11-Jan-01, to lugnet.trains)

If you haven't read (URL) it now! The firmest endorsement I've ever heard from Lego that new trains are coming! I was getting worried for a bit when I noticed the 45xx numbering has been used on non-train stuff (those funky racer things) Matt (24 years ago, 10-Jan-01, to lugnet.trains)
