Even though I am not fond of the Revolution trains I think the clear red glittered chassis on this Xmas Thomas would look kewl modified with some blinking lights underneath. Big Grin

Honestly the Christmas set would have been great to release Stanley in the motorized range since he's already white rather than doing Thomas for the 200th time.

Maybe like underglow under the trains? like a special chassis like hugo with the propeler

Just noticed a NEW feature on next months release of the Last Blue Train Hokutosei DD51 Set. The Dummy engines chassis has a plate on the front left side that will accommodate a PlaKid. This is not found on any other DD51 or DE10 Chassis (interchangeable) at all including any motorized chassis. Can't tell from the picture if this fella will be decapitated when going under bridges, through tunnels or risers though.

Sorry Super, not new at all. The previous dummy DD51s also had this feature.

as much as I like having a kid on the front the train, I don't think the kid can clear tunnels.

Well call me Embarrassed. Of course you are right Dr Chris. I had a look at all the dummy chassis I have (which I didn't do before Posting here) and sure enough they ALL have those plates on both sides of the chassis. How could I have never noticed these before, I have many of these chassis. I would like to blame all this on a Senior Moment but I can't. I feel such a fool but thats not something new for me. I stand red faced and corrected...thank you Dr Chris.

They can if they bend down a bit!
