I would be in for an 'upgraded' K-line tooling sourced J1e Hudson, a PRR H10 with the taller tender and better silver paint, a revisit of the PRR M1b, a scale camelback possibly, and a Lionel Lines baby Hudson with die-cast 6-wheel 2046 tender - can be conventional, or LC 2.0 whatever.
Any small legacy steam would be considered.

A big Yes! For aLionel Lines baby Hudson, number it 2046 as well.

And all black paint please if it's not too much trouble.

No, no, not silver! The last one had a wonderfully silver smokebox....but...it's not supposed to be silver.
It's supposed to be graphite.(a dark grey)
Prototype steamers have a mixture of graphite and linseed oil on the smoke box because if it was painted it would burn off.
Oh and how about an oxide red that is the same on the Loco and tender instead of a tender that's too bright and a cab roof that's burgundy?
The red on the k4s and m1s from years ago looked good....what happened?
Meh. I won't be buying anything anyway. That h10 was my last new purchase....fool me once.....
How about a Lionchief 2.0 773? I’d be in for one of them.

That's what I mean actually - no more white-silver, but the darker color we were accustomed to previously.

Another great idea. Use the Lionel Lines road name

Absolutely!!
How about some MP-54 electric commuter cars in PRR,Penn Central and Reading?
I guess the Acela is a go from what a hobby shop posted on line.
What shop?

Please!

It was just the front cover and not on their website. I won’t mention the shop. No details were given just the front cover. It featured the Acela.

Front cover of the catalog?
You guys have seen the cover?
@Trainlover9943 posted:Front cover of the catalog?
Yes. Front cover. Nothing else.
What was on the cover
Long Island RR motive power in LC+ 2.0
Thanks
