Great story, Arnold!

thumbs up

So, Lionel!!  Ya think maybe it's time to dust off some tooling???

I do!

Great idea, Don, and Lionel should install a first rate smoke unit, first rate air horn tugboat sounds, and make it so it can float and run in real water with a motor and propellers. It would be the Visionline tugboat with all of the lights and O Scale figures including the sea captain and crew.

The exterior of the original tugboats are excellent and could be kept exactly the same.

Can you imagine how much that would cost?

Since most of us couldn't afford that, Lionel should also make a LionChief Plus 2.0 tugboat, which would be the same as the Visionline, but no floating on, and running in, water, no motor, and no propellers, and the cost would be 25% of the cost of the  Visionline.

LOL, Arnold
