A nice C&NW caboose with the darker yellow instyead of zito yellow, That is about all I have in a must get.
The Chicago & North Western colors and eras can get mistaken.
There are 3 yellows for Chicago & North Western
1960-1980 Original Yellow
1980-1990 Safety Yellow that is also called Zito Yellow
1990-1995 Traditional Yellow
You have to be even more clearly defined about the era of the Chicago & North Western caboose.
Do you need an O scale CNW Bay-Window Caboose from 1990-1995 in Traditional Yellow ?

I wonder how difficult and expensive it would be to mass produce a Vision Line 1:48th scale model of a highway-railroad pick-up truck that has operating lights, horn sounds, powered wheels, figures, and intricate details.

Original yellow. I stop at about '69 on my layout.
This is an Original Yellow Chicago & North Western bay-window caboose that could be made in O scale.

A proper scale J1e Hudson with LEGACY from the old K-Line tooling. Even one as Postwar inspired NYC 773 Hudson.

I'd be in for one.

I imagine it would be difficult to fit all of that into such a small model, but a good idea nonetheless.
Boston & Maine 2-bay covered hoppers in the BM 5200 series built by PORTEC in 1980
Produce 4 new road numbers every 3 months. Eventually all 100 road numbers can be produced.

A large amount of micro electronics and motors can be fit into N scale and HO scale locomotives and cabooses,
Putting that same amount of micro electronics with Command Control in a 1:48th scale HI-RAIL pick-up truck should be possible.

Yes Peter Araujo, Fantastic idea, I would love for Lionel to re-make the K-Kine J1e Scale NYC Hudson, only if they make it the Right Way. I prefer some extreme changes, a Large Pittman motor rear mounted, no substitute, 4 chuffs per revolution, fan driven smoke, and whistle steam, swinging bell, Legacy Control, a realistic headlight, crew men that look like they are at work, a detailed deck plate, steam exhaust, and that would sell Well. So, with the engine, they could also make a nice 18 inch heavyweight passenger set with people, a StationSounds diner, a Observation car with simple passenger talk. How would you all like this idea. Just dreaming. Happy Railroading Everyone

You nailed it there. That would be a buy item. Well, we'll see in about 15 days or so....

Seems like a good candidate for basic tmcc like the trackmobiles or lc2.0 (which is basically tmcc anyways)

Something like this but with command-control would be nice.
I would be game for a re-run of Lionel's Legacy F40Ph, perhaps some more Amtrak schemes and a NJT scheme?

I'd be down for a ATSF 3400 class Pacific after the late 1930s rebuild when 20K gallon oil tenders and Boxpok drivers were added. Could do a brass hybrid version.
It'll never happen though

@DaveP posted:What I'm hoping is in this catalog...
A Morristown & Erie caboose to match the Alco switcher...
Some type of M&E Rolling stock - gondola, boxcar, etc...
A SCALE maintenance-of-way hi-rail vehicle - pick-up truck, utility truck etc...
Fastrack-integrated ROW signals, signal bridges... or bring back the Mainline accessories
Public Delivery track did a nice Atlas M&E Hopper and Boxcar.

HI Paul - I did snag those, and I'm in the process to getting the METCA car as well. Took a while, but I did manage to get an Atlas M&E caboose.
I would like to see Lionel make a Maintenance of Way set. It would consist of the Bunk Car, the Kitchen Car, the Tool Car, the TMCC Crane and the Boom Car with sound. I believe these cars our in current production. So it would be relatively Easy to for Lionel to put a set like this together.
