I was inquiring about the Amtrak ones last Wednesday when I was at Charles Ro and they said there’s a shipment that’s due next week, which would be this week.
Did you get any of the passenger cars to that CSX set? They look nice!!!
The METCA custom run F40PH is at Lionel's warehouse, so they all should be arriving soon.
Stu
Oh just lovely! I just took delivery of the FM demo models now this!

Mine just arrived at Legacy Station today will ship out to me tomorrow
Funny you say that as I saw legacy station had some Amtrak veterans on their site saying in stock, they’re showing 1 CSX locomotive #3. I ordered 1&2 I wish they made #3 a super bass.
Please post a picture when it arrives.

Sound is great I didn't get a clip of the new dialog they have in it. And the dash is lit. The CP veterans sd90 is the non powered version

I just looked at the video, how did they manage to put a high headlight between the number boards as well as a nose headlight?
I was trying to look past the AC unit on the roof, but the headlights doesn’t represent what’s shown in the catalog.
The Amtrak F40PH Phase III #226 that I ordered arrived today. It matches the the catalog picture headlight-wise.
I did notice that it takes two presses of the ditch light on/off to effect a change in behavior on it.
I also noticed that Lionel has ditched the Lionel branded blue ribbons and packing paper. There was no foam wrapping either.

When mine arrived it had the blue ribbons and clear plastic wrap around the engine.
There’s no foam cause there’s no running boards besides the back deck and probably was inspected prior to delivery with someone leaving out the ribbon.. Anyway post some pictures!!

This isn’t what I meant. It had blue ribbons and plastic wrap. They just didn’t say “Lionel” on them nor did they have any Lionel logos on them. All of my previous Legacy engines had the very nice blue and white Lionel ribbons and plastic wrap that had the Lionel logo. The combination made for a very premium looking product.
As for foam, yes there was none on the back deck, but there was also no foam wrap under the plastic wrap.
Anyway post some pictures!!
How about a video? (I refrained before because it’s not the CSX version and I was only asking about packing and ditch light function, since those are probably common to all versions.)
Apparently Lionel got those right !! Curious how the cabbage cars sound.
I don’t believe the blue ribbon have Lionel on them anymore, my last two locomotives From the last catalog are just blue.
