Flyer Showcase? I can just see Lionel plopping the SHS/MTH freight cars on standard Flyer trucks. Well, maybe not, but I'd wager the scale wheel option would go bye-bye.
Also, I'm not sure Legacy would fit in the F-units without extensive redesign work. Things are pretty tight in there right now:
After all MTH's reworking for DCS bore a good responsibility for the F3's taking 4 years to produce.

Flyer Showcase sounds novel, but it could turn out as Flyer Slowcase. Jesting about Flyer trucks on SHS/MTH freight cars may not be as funny as you said, especially if they have zillions to use for whatever reason, keeps cost down with a cheap option.

if they can’t shoe horn in Legacy what about LionChief? When I looked inside my PE engine it all seemed small and compact. I would do a comparison with my SHS F3 but I am not that inclined to be honest, this is all a bit of fun at the moment on possible conjecture.
