Bill www.youtube.com/user/seayakbillI think there are some great road names there, especially the sharp Canadian National. It’s good to have trains that you can see on the rails today |

Okay, then why did you think it important to comment on a Lionel announcement thread with a "yawn" if you are flat out not interested in anything Lionel has to offer anyway? As for me, I am always interested in hearing about the latest offerings from Lionel, MTH and Atlas. I suspect that most hobbyists take the same approach.

There is nothing they can say or do that I care about. Ditto. But you cared enough to be dismissive about the new locomotives that Lionel is offering. I am curious about what message or point you guys were trying to make here? I think 99% of today's hobbyists really don't care about the "Lionel vs MTH or Atlas" angst anymore. All manufactures run together on our railroads. Does anybody pass up on a locomotive or freight car for the sole reason that "I will not buy that train because it is manufactured by company X and I only buy trains from company Y"? For example, when EZ-Catch Train shop offered a custom run C MTH Premier Central Maine & Quebec AC-4400 Cab # 1002 I put my order in because I really wanted a locomotive in that road name. Whether it was made by Lionel, MTH or Atlas, who ever offered it first was going to get my order. What difference does it make who offered it? e-zcatch.square.site/product/eta-january-2024-custom-mth-premier-central-maine-quebec-ac-4400-cab-1002/304

You know, you can't tell what color box they came out of once you put them on the layout.
