Is the Hudson Lionel's tooling or former MTH tooling?

They look to be Lionel's semi scale Hudsons from years back.

The LionChief Hudsons in the catalog aren't the same engines as the "semi-scale Hudsons from years back," assuming you're talking about the TMCC LionMaster Hudsons, and they're not MTH tooling.

These versions in the catalog are the smaller LionChief Hudsons, the same as other baby LC Hudsons which came out previously. (These baby Hudsons can't be considered semi-scale.) Among other differences, these are 19" long. The LionMaster Hudsons were 22" long. Another quick visual give-away is the classification lights. Those on the LionMaster are separately applied, prototypical in appearance, whereas those on the cataloged LC baby Hudsons are completely different, just molded into the shell.

Many folks have wondered for a long time why-oh-why doesn't Lionel bring back the outstanding LionMaster Hudson molds.
