(...) Yes! (...) I think there are a lot of nifty new pieces coming too! (...) I noted that too. (...) I packed some chewing gum, so we'll just see what happens.

(...) Should be easy enough even for an average-skilled builder to work around. What concern me more are the other parts there- the boiler half is pretty useless, and don't even get me started on the cab (SOLID??!!) eww. And yeah, Larry, that is (...)

(...) It would be much easier is the face disk was a separate piece from the rest of the boiler. But it looks like the face is part of a single front piece. Check out the bottom right inset picture on this box art. (URL) are four engine pieces to (...) (20 years ago, 22-Feb-05, to lugnet.trains, lugnet.year.2005)

(...) First, THANK YOU for posting these pictures! I'm already drooling over some of these new sets, and that hasn't happened in a while. 2005 looks like it should be a good year for LEGO and AFOLs. 2nd, I think we'd have to handicap a LUGNET team (...)
