What would be the dimensions of the wooden case?  I gotta clear a wall in the man cave!

PS Shouldn't it be "Sodium is an Alkali Metal"?

Elements
with an atomic weight beyond Berkelium (along with Europium, Dyspropium, and Holium) need to be on a more modern car since they were discovered after that 1947 build date.  Unless of course a repaint is involved...

I will again insist on 'My Little Pony' as your next series.  Mr. Wallet has been properly sedated to ensure ability to buy a full set at release...

If I could get decals for the Uranium car and put them on one of my scratchbuilt steam locos,
would it be able to pull 1000 of the Helium PS-1 cars?

I read somewhere that the Helium cars are prone to derailment.  Atlas, are you going to fix that problem?

So I'm not into collectors trains. Don't even have a Christmas train. But being an inveterate science geek, I'd actually buy this set! Especially now that the spelling in right.

Helium cars are the only cars that the empty weight is greater than the loaded weight...

I've already asked about the Unobtanium cars (on a different board). It looks like they will also be included with the set  :lol:

Years from now, when this April Fool's is long forgotten, Paul and Cory will have to take a lot of phone calls from people wondering when the Periodic Table Cars will ship... :tommann:

So if you do them, can you not include the "Atomic Weight " and  "Atomic Number"?  That's so CHEM100.

Two scientists create a teleportation ray, and they try it out on a cricket. They put the cricket on one of the two teleportation pads in the room, and they turn the ray on.
The cricket jumps across the room onto the other pad.
