Interesting or disturbing? Lionel appears to be price gouging. I first saw this at the Allentown train show. Two exact pieces side by side of MTH and Lionel at wildly different prices.
This is from one of our forum sponsors. I'm not calling them out. It's not their fault. I understand that they have to pay the price to Lionel and must set their pricing accordingly.
MTH Country Passenger Station $95
Lionel version of the MTH Country Passenger Station $140
And like I said in my other post... No shortage of this stuff. That famous auction site has a Buy it Now for $50.
