Cary brings up a good point, one I had forgotten about. Here are a couple
of deep links of people holding LEGO train sets under their arm. It was
nice to see this at a train show.

Tom told us he believed he could have sold quite a few more if he had them
but he had no idea what the demand would be. In addition to four sets each
of 4511 and 4512, Tom also sold out of the supply of 10013 Open Freight
Wagons he had.
It was really nice to be able to point people who asked to one of the vendor
booths right on the show floor.
