Lionel vision line gantry crane

SPARTY1225,

  I totally agree with you.  I have two with the clamshell bucket and one with the magnet.  Both are great for kids of all ages.  
  Smoke unit would be great also more small LEDs on the booms along with maybe a wireless drivetrain to move the crane up and down the tracks sorta like the MIJACK.  

Fun idea, for sure.

Good idea with adding led work lights!

Does Lionel have accessories on the radar for the Vision Line treatment?

It seems like they should/could on a few things.  Good opportunity to innovate especially the ones with play value. A gantry crane can be fun and used for non train related customer/sales too. Include a 14volt or so plug in transformer so it is plug and play out of box.  

I would totally buy a Vision Gantry Crane, as well as the sound shed. I would like Lionel to include both an electromagnet and a clamshell with the Vision crane. Then operators could choose which add on they want to use. The magnet on the newer cranes is removable (it just plugs into a jack underneath the boom). Also, I want a scale Vision Intermodal Crane with sounds and new Crane/Boom Car sets with included clamshell and electromagnet.
