Doesn't the seller (who presumably keyed this description in) know?
Have you searched, by item number, the Lionel Product Locator on their website?
If it's a Lionel term there should be a clue, maybe?
Maybe it's the "Major League 'Rasslin" Commemorative Edition.
Maybe it's a Latin acronym for "buy at your own risk?"
I can't find the term in Lionel's description of it.
Metro Light Rail?

Only people from "NORTHfolk" know, wherever that is!

the letters MLR appear on various Lionel shipping cartons, fairly certain it just means
mailer or some other abbreviation for the shipping carton.
I was wondering because it is on the original shipping carton. I just didnt want it to effect the scale or something like it being a non-powered unit.
According to Lionel Nation (http://www.lionelnation.com/html/for_sale.htm), Ed H is correct.
Most Lionel Special Production/Uncataloged Items Came With Their Own Individual Brown Cardboard Boxes. These Sleeves Are Refered To By Lionel As "Mailers" And Each Has A Lionel Printed Label That Says "MLR XXXXX" Where The X's Are The Actual Item Description.
What, me worry?
Great to know!!! Thanks for all the help guys!
