New LionChief Plus NW2 Switchers ???

Agreed!  Actually my favorite LC+ loco to date.

Hi Joe: I do have the LionChief Plus, Milwaukee Road Item #6-85063. I am in the process of publishing a YT Video on my channel. I did find two things wrong with this locomotive and it will have to go back to Lionel.

Look for this video on my YT Channel the week of, February 11th. Below is the YT Thumbnail.

Hope this helps: Gary

They are in showcase at Hiawatha Hobbies in Waukesha, Wi

They have a Milwaukee Rd one & Union Pacific one .  Both look good !  I might get the the Milwaukee Rd one !  

I hope they run well .   

I have the same early release LC+ B&O and fully agree that this NW-2 version has been a favorite of mine since day one...it has performed well, I like the sounds...however, I haven’t used the smoke feature for a long time.

I just picked mine up today, I got the Milwaukee Road. It looks and runs fantastic and I'm very impressed with it.

Can you post a video of the engine running & smoke unit running .  Thanks

Hey Mark - completely missed your post and you are absolutely correct we need to let the train world know when we are happy with a purchase

That MKT version looks awesome - the Nickel Plate is calling my name

Lionel has done a great job with these switchers - scale detailing / modern running and electronics in a postwar engine

Thanks for posting

I purchased a lionchief Angela trota Thomas Christmas pacific steam just before Dec. 25th to run under the tree. It has run flawless to say the least. It was my first lionchief engine and went and bought the FT aa set. These engines are fantastic IMHO, and look forward to my new grandson getting to run them. No complaints here what so ever with these items. In fact will add more to the roster. Just ordered a Susquehanna go-20 plus from Charles ro who is blowing them out at 139.99.   Can’t get any better then that. Didn’t mean to steal thread, but compliments and credit were due. Good job Lionel.
