About LEGO Town Construction

LEGO Construction is a subtheme of the Town introduced in 1980 and ran until 1997 that was based around various types of construction. Town Construction was later moved to the City theme.
1980 LEGO Sets
1980 refreshed the 12V Train system with remote-controlled points, signals, lighting, and decouplers, creating one of LEGO’s most sophisticated play ecosystems. Classic Space continued its rapid growth with larger craft, bases, and color-varied astronauts. Expert Builder (the forerunner to Technic) advanced functional builds with more gears and linkages, while LEGO Dacta was established to bring learning-through-play into classrooms.
