Wowzers. I JUST ordered this car along with the excursion Two Pack car set and the Legacy First Run 4014 Big Boy, came here to announce my happiness with that decision.. but now.. meh, I'm a bit deflated and disappointed.
To pay Lionel top billing prices they sure should do a much, much better job in quality control / assurance. This is rather maddening and sad.
That said here in this thread, there are fixes. I'll report back here how my items show up to compare notes with everyone.
