Since this is not an improvement - possibly a cost cutting measure................
Factor in the way it was introduced to the marketplace certainly leaves a person suspicious.
And as mentioned earlier........how do we know which engines will have the new system.
I'm on hold for any new purchases until this becomes much more clear.

What Lionel really needs to do is some serious ""PRICE" cutting measures........ I paid 1200 for my Sunset 3rd rail brass S.F. 5011 2-10-4 but WHY would ANYONE pay 1100 for yard 0-8-0 switcher steamer ? There is no logic in this except GREED. There are plenty of scale size 0-8-0's on ebay for much less !!!

Hmmm,
I'm perfectly content with the $1450 for my soon to be received brass Sunset SP S-12 0-6-0.
