Figured it deserved its own funeral...er...topic.
They are now missing from the Lionel shipping schedule.

Just a repeat of what I posted in the Polar express thread:
There's no proof of cancellation, but there does appear to be a shell game going on with Flyer.
I get the feeling the current head honcho doesn't have any interest in the Flyer line.

To make judgement calls based on emotion without reason would just not be our style rusty...
Seems chances pretty good though...
Ben.
If it's any consolation, they still appear in the product locater.
They've probably just been pushed back to infinity and beyond...
Well, I need another locomotive like I need a hole in the head. If we don't hear anything about the Berks during the York presentation (a good question to ask for someone attending,) I'll probably cancel my preorder anyway.

The American Flyer Facebook guy said that they are not yet on the shipping schedule (nor is any of the other new 2015 catalogued stuff) And once all the preorders are squared away with production estimates blah blah that they will make an appearance then.
The Lionel Flyer sky has not fallen yet...it's just really gloomy.

Good. The Southern and Erie are still there. I ordered the Southern. (And the C&O and PE and PM.)
