Thank you Sunhuntin
I can never tell between a capital I or a lower case L with the font that YouTube uses for their URL coding system...and I seem to seldom guess right!?:S
ITS FIXED NOW.

Interesting set there Muddy, so you only get Winston with the track? No locomotive or anything? Bit of an odd proposition unless its only intended as a track extension for someone who already has set(s).

Still a cool wagon tho

Yes they kind of hold Winston hostage with having to buy this set, so it was a very long time coming to finally breakdown and get it, but I was actually pleasantly surprised by it..
Quite a bit of track, unique features, ramps, risers,Y track pieces...and of course the smiling face of a new friend!!

Does the Sir Topham Hatt Plakid fit properly into Winston I am dying to know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!???????????/

[Super]

Hi Tully

I actually have never heard of this set and the fact that it only includes Winston as a vehicle. So I take it that Winston is only exclusive to this set and was not included in any other? Was there stickers for him too?

Did you contact the YouTube fellow that had a Monty to get more info on him?

Nope.
This is the first time that I have seen an ill conceived "Fisher Price" effort from Plarail!! Why would pla-kids NOT fit inside?? I still like Winston and it's a cool set, but this kinda of lack of...(IDK what) really bugs me.

yes Super he's held hostage in this set...LOTS of stickers to apply too
I did try to contact ToyTrainsFan about Monty too...
I left quite a lengthy message a week ago trying to explain it's necessity, but I've received no response...I'm sure people bother him all the time, and I can't expect that anyone could truly fathom it's importance to us...somehow someway I'm hoping to at least get a response back soon... Fingers X-ed!!

You're not alone in buying sets to get a unique train or whatever Muddy, I recently bought an Advance set because it has a steam loco with coaches in blue rather than the normal brown ones available as a seperate train

I know it helps me when I contact a big collector if I include a picture or two of our collection to show that we are serious about what we are asking about, have something in common and let us stand out above the casual questions. One thing about collectors is they have a lot of respect for each other.
