I'd have to say the one set that evaded me the most was the R142A set. I would always be in a new financial situation when MTH announced the one set I've been wanting for the longest. In 2009, just graduated grad school and in 2013, moved out on my own into the city and just bought a car. It seems that bad timing occurred both times when this set was produced. Also, I will miss MTH their Subway sets really could not be beat and I feel now it's going to get a lot harder for Subway fans to get quality sets, especially since Lionel is more about novelty subway sets rather than making mainline products. And lets not forget the price hikes that will happen on ebay, just thinking about it is making me upset.

I agree, I REALLY hope that Lionel gets the tooling for the subways and runs with it. I would HATE to see them go away.
