Personally, I'd like some Strasburg items (especially no. 475, as I don't think a 4-8-0 has been done in O-Scale before)

Done by 3rd Rail several years ago. It is a beautiful model. I only wish you had a choice of Cab#s with 3rd Rail. It seems to be the luck of the draw when they ship.

I have preordered four diesel engines from Lionel and Mth and have not had any problems with any of them. Most recently the Lionel NS 1111 SD70ACE no problems.

Seems like there are few Lionel diesels with problems. Steam seems to be the issue for Lionel. My one complaint is that on Lionel's barcode unit (1111), the number doesn't function as an actual barcode.  Be wary when you pre-order Lionel steam.

Ok, so I bought four new production Lionel engines this past year. Two had problems and were taken care of by the dealers. Both problems were computer board ones. I have two more on order, due out in February .

We live by computers and we die by computers. I am using one to type this message., after all.

I also bought several older non-computer run engines off Ebay and they run great. But, of course, they have fewer features which is fine with me .

The world we live in. There are plenty of product choices available out there if you look, especially considering older, less sophisticated engines, mostly like new and performing just great.

Life is good. Happy New Year, everyone.

Due in large part to consistent feedback from its customers and dealers, Lionel has decided to resume manufacturing its scale freight and passenger cars with its former best in class die-cast sprung trucks and couplers with hidden uncoupling tabs. 

Ahem, those trucks were not all die cast. They are sheet metal with die cast side frames. A far departure from Atlas O die cast trucks, K-Line die cast trucks, and MTH die cast trucks.

Its time for some more commuter rail and 21st century trains. I would like to see lionel make a run of additional amtrak cabbages painted in several of the phase 4 schemes that are seen today Ex: standard wave, Downeaster, 90208/90221 veterans. 

Also, I think a run of LEGACY HHP-8s will be wicked cool. Count me in. These could be made to display MARC and AMTRAK schemes. I understand that licencing would be needed from Marc but since thats not my field of work, all I can say is that at least the tooling for the electric already exists. (or at least I hope it still does)

Appreciate the technical correction. I should have said "die-cast metal sprung trucks and couplers with hidden uncoupling tabs." The hope is that the rumor is correct, as the former Lionel trucks and couplers are vastly superior to the ones Lionel is currently manufacturing.

If the catalog pages are bound into the spine as well as their couplers stay connected to each other, we'll have 200 or so loose sheets.

I would like to see more LC+ though and possibly an ERR board & remote that converts postwar engines to a similar LC+ radio control.

Probably more like a loss of anticipated sales.

If they go back to the nicer and proven design, that would be great. The only detail still needed are air hoses like the competition supplies.

 

We just need to collect some combination door 40-50’ box cars. Lionel started with one ice reefer but never continued. The bottom door guide holes are there to do this, planned by the former PS Series car designer guys. Unfortunately they were used and then kicked out the door by Lionel Mgmt. after designing the GOOD scale products. Maybe the newer replacement staff has enough insight to offer and carry on the door variety designs that were planned?

I will wait and see who comes up with something new to buy first. I have plenty of the same old cookies offered each year, don’t need anymore.

Because I’ve been a consistent critic of the new cheapo trucks, I would definitely be in for some new rolling stock - especially some PS1 boxcars or diecast offset hoppers - if the trucks are indeed reverting back to the previous design (to put my money where my mouth is).  I would also be in for a Legacy NKP Consolidation with a swingin’ bell.

I know it's probably wishful thinking but I'll put in a request for something in the Postwar-inspired / conventional category. Lionel has pretty much abandoned these but still think there's a loyal following.

I really like some of the Postwar Celebration stuff from the early 2000's and have been picking up a few things here and there lately. I was a kid during the MPC period but was always attracted to some of the more iconic Postwar pieces and love the modern remakes that have been done. I wouldn't mind seeing a few more made but doubt it will happen.

PWC was a cool idea. I even picked up a new mint budd set with 2- 2559’s in which I could never justify buying at those ridiculous prices.

I am chomping at the bit to see the new catalog!   Im hoping for anything in Southern in rolling stock.   And maybe something Southern in LC or LC+ engines?   I have all 3 of the LC+ engines made so far in Southern.  Would like to have a 4rth, 5th and 6th! And I'd like to find a 2401B Southern switcher.   Have the A.

The thread asked about rumors. We will know whether there is any validity to it when the new catalog comes out. There are many of us that hope there is.

I don't have a clue as to what will be in the new catalogue but I agree with xray, new LC+ rather than new road names on old engines and the ability to convert conventional locos to LC+.

If Lionel has the old Weaver Alco RS3 tooling,how about using it and release some Scale Alco RS3 locomotives 

It is time for Lionel to offer the ALCO RS3 in O-scale. There are nearly an endless list of the railroads that owned them. If they concentrated to produce RS3’s it would take over 5 years (maybe 10 years) to cover a majority of the railroads that owned them.

This may have been covered already (or maybe it was in that LC+ thread) but would love to see Lionel hit a homer with some completely new LC+ locos. They’ve had a good start with steam and diesel offerings over the last 4-5 years but time for something to wow us.

I agree John, though the LC+ Berkshire with Bluetooth wowed me last year, and I bought one. I'm hoping for something completely new to the line this year like a GG-1 or Pennsy Turbine (671/681/2020) or something completely new like a NYC Niagara or Mohawk.

Absolutely! The Berk was maybe the "best in show" for any of the LC+ offerings to date.

A Lionchief Plus GG1 or 773 Hudson would be great!

i mentioned both to Ryan K last year...it seemed to stike a chord with him. Maybe one day...

Would like to add a LC+ Daylight GS4 and a J to the list.

I would like to see the production version of the double-gantry, free-standing bridge crane I designed and built a fully functional prototype for Mike five years ago. Every time I ask, I am told it will be soon or next year. I has three axis movement plus on/off power for a magnet when such is used instead of a hook.

So that's your handy work Alex. Outstanding job! Mike showed me some photos when he was still with L and it appeared to be a very exciting product. It would have made a very nice update to the accessory line. Fingers crossed it still sees the light of day at some point.

A good selection of starter sets

maybe a Transformers or gi joe or even star wars themed train or why not Gobots

more tier 4 engines this time for lionchief plus

a lionchief bullet train

Star Wars would be great, but even with it's popularity, I wonder the size of the cross section of people who are both Star Wars and train enthusiasts.

I liked Gobots as a kid, primarily because they were for the most part more affordable versions of Transformers.  (the ones I had were all mostly small action figure like (which at the time you could probably buy for under $5 per figure), rather than huge like some the Transformer toys (many of which were more like the $30 range, IIRC)). I had probably 15 or 20 Gobots, never would have been able to have that many Transformers (both for size and cost reasons).

I would assume with the current popularity of the Transformers line of movies, toys, etc., most folks would probably see Gobots as an attempted rip-off of Transformers.  (I do not off the top of my head know the history to know which one was technically "first" to market, and I did not try to look it up)

Honestly I think Star Wars would be a great cross over, and have recommended it before.  Lionel already has a basic agreement with Disney of some kind to make all the Mickey mouse related items they already catalog.  I think a transport train with X-wing or tie fighter models partially assembled would be the way to go.  Another option might be partially assembled AT-ST's (the smaller two legged walkers)

I could see a flat car with two crew cabs loaded as well as cars full of legs or feet pieces.  Could be a lot of fun!

Yes. The prototype was a bit taller than I thought it needed to be, but it was OK. The biggest challenge was controlling the orientation of the hook (due to the long cable), since the little material handlers did not appear to be interested in helping to align it with the load. If Lionel does not intend to offer the crane as a product, I would like to post a video I made of it in operation.

Modelers have moved on past the toy cars to true detailed O along with the electronic advancements of today. No demand for non-scale anymore. You either have it all, look toward more realistic items or are just plain uninformed about all the numerous O variations.

At the last TCA presentation, Ryan Kunkle said that though it does not get nearly the attention the scale line does, it is the starter set traditional line that pays the bills and keeps Lionel in the black.

Of course, you can also repeat to yourself that the world is flat, but that won't change the fact that it's not.

Yes, there is no shortage of train products on the secondary market, much of it traditionally sized. But there have been millions of these kinds of trains made over the last 70 years between Lionel, AMT, Kusan, MARX, K-Line, Williams, Industrial Rail and RMT. The reality is that the overall size of the market has shrunk and there are just larger numbers of trains than there are buyers. Umm, there's also plenty of newer scale trains on the used market too. If some of those are harder to find, it's because their production numbers are so much smaller.

If Lionel totally dropped the scale line of trains tomorrow, it would hurt them, but not put them out of business. If Lionel dropped the traditional starter set line, there would also be no scale trains because there would be no Lionel.

Perhaps so.

I don’t buy new Lionel for re-sale unless it’s the original PS, X31, USRA or GLA series type cars. New car prices are too high along with poor quality issues as of late. New LS production cars look homemade vs. machine production. Too many variations with the new cheap trucks, paint inconsistencies rough and smooth and glue issues by making them one at a time in the US. Reason why 30 dollar cars are now 80 is because companies had to build in a warranty pre re-work cost for all the failures and returns.

With all due deference to Ryan, I question the accuracy of that statement. On the surface, it makes no sense to me, as certainly the higher profit margins would be on the more expensive scale line. If Lionel is selling significantly more starter set traditional line product than scale line product, it could be true, but it's hard to imagine that's the case. Unfortunately, there is no way to know for certain, as Lionel is not a publicly traded company, so its financials are unavailable.

My sentiments exactly. Will only buy new old freight and passenger car stock with the die-cast sprung trucks and couplers with hidden uncoupling tabs, because of the cliff drop off in the quality of the new product. On the other hand, I have had good luck with Legacy diesel and steam engines, but I now buy with caution given the significant number of issues that colleagues have been experiencing.

I would be very cautious buying anything from Lionel these days.   If you can get over the pricing, there are just too many unknowns to want to get into playing the guessing game with them:

- will the model be what was represented / described in the catalog?

- will the item arrive on time or close to on time?

- will the item arrive intact?

- will the item function out of the box?

- will the item have paint and/or assembly issues?

I'm sure that there are plenty of happy Lionel buyers out there - congrats!  For my money though, I'd rather not gamble with them.  Life is too short to be making trips to UPS to send expensive, brand new purchases back for warranty repairs.  My new Lionel buying days have ended and I have sold off all of my trains.  If I get back into it again, I'm eyeing the MPC-era stuff that I liked as a kid - it's much cheaper, it can be fixed and you know what you are getting.

Since Ryan Kunkle knows what Lionel’s numbers are and hobbyists don’t, I’d say Ryan’s comments at the TCA museum presentation are more believable.

The train set market has much higher profit margins than the rest of Lionel’s product line. That I know for certain.

The labor-intensive cost of producing our more upscale locomotives combined with the few number of loyal hobbyists purchasing that equipment is what makes the price so high and the margins so thin on Legacy-level stuff.

With low cost commercial 3D printers, I no longer buy the “Tooling cost" excuse anymore.

High priced tools and tool makers are no longer needed today. If you still are doing it the old way, chances are you will not survive in today’s business. When customer’s cars arrive for weathering, I see parts missing or floating around in the box. Many of these are new in the box unopened by the purchaser. Everything is dissembled for painting and I see variations with in the same cars. I have to wonder what kind of so called production is going on. As for Lionel of late, I see issues derived from possibly an inexperienced staff. Maybe they should hire back the good PS designers that were let go?

 My friend called last night and told me the horror stories with the falling off L&N banner on his 500.00  21" passenger set. He had stores check their stock and all the others were the same way. This tells me no one is inspecting the finished product nor was it tested for reliability with time. 

You stick with your favorite restaurant because of consistency. When that changes, you generally move on to another.

Hopefully they will bring the new SC-44 locomotives to the table. I personally would like to see them bring the Lionel Amtrak Amfleet End Car back, since the car was designed pretty well for conventional locomotives. But they better have ditch light on it, if they will be bringing it back. Oh and LED interior lights would also be a nice addition.
