The entire BTO idea is a giant issue. Especially if the photo doesn't match the finished product. I would love to get one of the brand new Hudson's coming out but now I am just of the mindset that I am going to have to see it first before I commit that large amount of money to it. Which stinks because I may miss out on it but I rather know what I am getting before I buy it. It's like buying a car without seeing it, none of us would do that. There is really no reason to keep rehashing the situation here, we all know it's painted wrong. I have kind of been on a mission ever since this engine came out to get at least an answer from Lionel. All the information I have officially from the company is that they are discussing it. I have heard a lot of hearsay, both positive and negative about this issue getting resolved. As soon as I hear some more information I will post it.
As I mentioned previously the best thing to do is to reach out to Lionel directly, call them and email them. Let them know you are dissatisfied with the product. But please be nice about it. I would never help anyone who was being mean to me personally. Be respectful. That's how we fix this. Hopefully we will get an answer soon.
