Joe:
Whatever Nick Ladd knows, Maury Klein knows more.  My info comes from the
horses mouth, directly.  I said: "Too bad you guys aren't into S-gauge."
Maury K-Line replied: "Wait until Toy Fair."  I said "Really?" and he
answered: "We'll have a big surprise for you at Toy Fair."  That's next
Spring.

Now what could that surprise be?  Hmmmm.  Does K-Line have anything now that
was built in 1/64th. scale but is gauged for 0?  Something that won't
require massive tooling, just a chassis change?  What could it be????????
COULD IT BE A BIG BOY?  DO YA THINK?

Toy Fair.   I can wait.
