@Madockawando posted:Ironically, the fact that it was even necessary to start a thread like that only makes one wonder even more what is going on at MTH. Can you imagine if someone started a serious thread with: “Hey everybody! I just talked to Charles Ro and guess what? Lionel is STILL in business!”
A post like that would only lead to more speculating and questions on what the heck is really going on with Lionel.
A thread like that wasn’t necessary, but given Lionel’s ambiguous announcement, no one knows who has which tooling. There seems to be two big categories of tooling that folks want to know about 1) MTH’s excellent Korean made steam tooling and 2) RailKing and RailKing Imperial tooling.
According to this announcement below, MTH still retains 80% of their tooling assets.
