    Can someone invent a time machine and send one of these back a couple years for me? See, we did a LEGO display around the Christmas season at a toy and hobby show, but the coordinator stuck us next to a guy who was running a ride-a-train that looked to be about the same gauge. On a cement floor, that thing sounded like a bridge that was about to collapse, and if he'd been charging kids for the "priveledge" of riding on this thing...well, we would have been able to hear ourselves think for the entire show.

    HAHAHAHAHAHA.....


    I was supposed to be helping some coworkers out but instead I was reading this article. They thought I was working on an estimate, but I started laughing uncontrollably at the end of the story and I lost a client. LOL


    oh well.... I can lose a few customers in this recession...right? right? RIGHT?

    @jcrockerman: Perhaps you should share this heartwarming story with this potential client and you may win them back..

    @B1663R: Oh, but it's highly portable! As the description says the track "fits into its own 45 1/4" L x 19" W x 9 3/4" D rolling storage case." So you only have to be willing to lug a 32 pound 2' x 4' box behind you!


    Oh that and the 83 pounds worth of train...
