I've built a bunch of the 2001 sets, I've got all but the largest sets in these two themes (7317 was not to be found in my local stores and since I don't have a USB port, I will be waiting to buy 1349 until I can get it on sale). I haven't built all (...) (24 years ago, 29-Nov-00, to lugnet.year.2001, lugnet.reviews) !
