I've never had a bad MTH delivery. Yeah, there is/was the dreaded 5 volt electronics failure. But, that was primarily due to inferior electrolytic capacitors on the market at that time. I bought 2 Lionel Legacy locomotives from 2014 production and I am absolutely delighted with both. Then I pre-ordered the quasi Legacy 0-8-0, followed by the defective Mogul. With MTH leaving the market, I want to be a Lionel customer, but I have no faith. My future locomotive orders will be Atlas O (if they ever get locomotive production in gear) and 3rd rail.
