Reply to "rare Lionel Red Rocket Express train set in Holiday Affair film on TMC"

Could you see a Legacy Red Rocket Express with 3893 Engine & Christmas talking passenger cars, with the voices of Mitchum, Leigh & Gebert?  I would get out my plastic & purchase one right now.  It would be another great Lionel Christmas train.  PCRR/Dave

Unfortunately Dave, I think that film has insufficient following these days to support the attempted mass production of a Red Rocket set.  Also consider that should Lionel or MTH try to make one, the movie studio owning the rights would want a cut, further hiking the set's production cost.  (Note that Lionel got the rights to sell a "Christmas Story" set, which, despite the film's appeal, turned out to be a bust simply due to the design & components Lionel used for it.)    Merry Christmas!!
