Here's my take on the 2022 pricing and Lionel Catalog:
I've recently returned to the hobby after a few decades away. I'll be building a new layout this year and I know almost nothing about the new technology (TMCC, Legacy, etc..). Although I'm interested in the new Class A Vision steam engines I still need to back fill some things on my wish list ie Big Boy. I will probably wait until I have my new layout up and running to purchase anything big.
I'm looking at getting a few things to get started:
- Lionel Base 3
- Cab3 App
- BN SW1
- BNSF and/or BC Rail ES44AC
- BN SD-40
- CP Veterans SD90
- Miller High Life box car
- 1776 box car
- Polar Express
