Nothing for me. I like the Boston and Albany 4-4-6T, but I'll pass on this one like I did the K-Line version as there are no passenger cars to go with it. It would be an orphan shelf queen.
The commuter engines are tempting....but I'm not sure.....already have enough engines for commuter traffic....on the Put

I liked the new catalog. I was hoping not to find anything in it because I bought a ton of stuff from the last catalog. But again it was not the case LOL. I still have to place my order but here is what I am getting.
Canadian National tank engine
8 PS-1 soundcars
7 60' box cars
2 Therm ice reefers
Deep Rock and Sinclair tank cars
Manufacturers Railway set
Extra tank car to go with set......................................Paul 2
Sort of the opposite for me. Ordered nothing from Volume 1 so have nada in the delivery pipeline.
Definitely leaning towards one of the LC 2.0 GG1s, possibly an 0-6-0, and an I-12 caboose.

8 PS-1 soundcars
After the fiasco with the first sound cars having repeated banging echo rather than flange squeal I'll have to hear these first. Was track side at an event with 9 trains passing in less than three hours. Sound wise the random flange squeal frequency far surpasses cars with flat spots in the consists. There will need to be a quick TMCC/Legacy way to turn it on and off rather than turning the car over.
Morristown & Erie S2, local line for me
Pennsylvania Vistavision Dome, like the name "Catenary View"
There are items I will purchase but not preorder. We are fortunate that some dealers buy extra units for their inventory.
NYS&W S-2, but I will wait until I have my NYO&W F3's back before I commit. I understand it should be soon...

I hear you! I spend my money on boos, gambling, and women! The rest I just waste.
I think this is a great catalog. If money weren't an object is be ordering a ton from it. That being said, it is so I'll have to limit myself.
I plan on ordering the 4014 excursion version (although first run is cool), the 4141 funeral train set, and probably one odd the additional excursion car 2 packs.
Stuff I like but won't buy due to money includes the Jupiter and 119 plus matching cars, ACL 4-8-4, NS OCS, Alaska RR set, and the Southern dome car.
I’ll order a few of the PS1 boxcars (now that the thumbtacks have been killed), the PolEx caboose, and a soon-to-be-announced special run F7 from one of the dealers. I’m really trying to talk myself out of an ATSF Northern. So far, so good, but it’s early.

I saw a custom run F3 - Central of Georgia on Legacy Stations website (Tempting). Interested in what F7's you are talking about. Wish there was a way to know all the special runs being done so one could decide before jumping. I of course already ordered the Cotton Belt - Waited a long time for these. But some Frisco (Correctly Done) or Missouri Pacific would be great. Or maybe some correctly done L&N (black & Cream).
Just received this e-mail from Trainworld • Trainland
Maybe the next "Lionel Catalog" will have this locomotive, seems like the HO crew always get's new items first.
The Amtrak Charger goes right by my train room, be cool to have this loco on my layout.
Maybe the next catalog: Gary

Anyone planning to order the Bush 4141 without the cars, consider buying the set and I will take the cars. Given the pre order price for the set vs the engine and cars you will save a few bucks if we split the cost. You buying the set means you will have the warranty on the engine. I have no interest in a warranty on the cars. PM me if this interests you.

I'm leaning towards the LC+ GG1 and a flat spot boxcar.
NUTHIN!! -That's new stuff for all you well-off dudes... For me, if it ain't used, ain't on ebay or auction, ain't available at a train show or swap meet, then it tain't mine! DCC or DCS? TMCC? Legacy? 'Lion Chief'? Sound? -NOPE! -Give me a good old fashioned open-frame motor where I can still hear the electric hum and buzz and still smell the ozone... Let me hear the actual real sound of small metal wheels click-tracking over tubular track and I'm in toy train heaven! I don't really care about fancy complicated bells and whistles nor the latest electronic gadgets. (And if I ever do, I can wait. -It'll all depreciate soon enough... ;>})

Any thoughts on the Lionel train table. Price is a little high but it includes delivery and set up. Not sure how they are going to do that. I’d like to get some more details.
I’m with GRJ, I ordered the BETD Porter. The price is right and it gives me a chance to try out LC+ 2.0. It can haul scrape in gondolas from the yard. I wonder if BETD gondolas will be offered. On the other hand, since #15 is now Thomas, maybe Sodor will do 😝
Where is the train table shown, a link maybe?
