4204 the train tunnel set looks interesting, but the rest look rather basic.
give a man a fish you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you lose a great business opportunity

4204 looks like narrow gauge rail, only 4 studs wide, with individual rails!

I like the mining sub-theme of it.
Would fit well as a top layer of a Power Miners display.
I have inoperable cancer and am unable to work. Any gifts would be appreciated. Thank you!

i love that the minifig about to be put on the stretcher outside the hospital appears to have slipped on a banana. nice joke, lego.

I really like that Hospital. It is interesting that the police stations LEGO makes are much bigger than the hospital, which is pretty much never the case in real life. However, despite its small size, this looks like the nicest hospital exterior that LEGO had produced thus far.
The mining subtheme is interesting. I will buy a few of the small pick-up truck sets, but the other sets will depend mostly on the pieces. I'm thinking LEGO should change the name of the theme to LEGO Country instead of LEGO City... first we get the forest police and firefighters, now a mining subtheme? At least it isn't another police or fire subtheme, but our LEGO City is more urban, and this just won't fit.
Since we probably won't get another construction subtheme for a while now that we are getting this, I'm hoping that LEGO uses the City Vehicles subtheme to bring us some scale construction vehicles, rather than the monstrous dump trucks, bulldozers, and rollers we've gotten in this subtheme and the last construction subtheme.

I'm not a big CITY fan, but that dump truck is freaking sweet.

I'm glad to see that they're making the truck beds buildable rather than using giant "single use" parts.

Finally a hospital, a few more unisex themes are welcome for my daughter, but the hospital seems more like a clinic, its small, it doesn't seem to have enough room to have a surgery (with the doctors from the minifig collections). Guess I will be adding an extension!
