 | | Hogworts Express Conversion?

| I just saw the new fall shop at home catalog and the hogworts express set description states that the train will not run on 9V track. In the picture of the set it appears that the train is built on the standard long train bases. I would think that (...) (23 years ago, 18-Sep-01, to lugnet.trains)
