Sounds like the same "kick the can down the road" gibberish they told everyone about the 2016 S-Fest cars.
At one time I was an ardent spokesperson for the wonderful things MTH was going to do for the S scale world when they bought out SHS.
No more.
Their complete lack of attention to our scale has soured me on any hope MTH will produce new S scale product or even revamped SHS product.
I think their focus has been on the DCS APP development for some time now. Too bad a shrinking S scale customer base won't wait around to use it.
Lionel's development of FlyerChief for the S scale line has left MTH in the dust IMO. It's simple and it works.
Maybe MTH will turn things around in the future but I doubt it.
