You should have a Will Robinson figure standing beside the Robot, whose official name was B9, if my memory is right.
I have Will Robinson and Dr. Smith photos. Thought the robot would look great next to the Turbo because they both look futuristic.[:)] The robot was indeed a B-9 Environmental Control Robot.

Has to be one of the most unique passenger trains ever manufactured. Looks terrific.
It is too bad none were preserved for history. It is my understanding they were all scrapped.[:'(]
They TURBO TRAIN was a great passenger train set to ride on. If I can not get to ride on one again, I will have to get the TURBO TRAIN painted in the typical late 1970’s and early 1980’s AMTRAK scheme.

Just opened a big box from MTH that contained the Amtrak version. I’ll looking forward to getting it running! I was surprised at how light the box was!. I love the interior detailing.
