Yea, well....forget about any more MTH SW-1s. Lionel bought the tooling and upped the retail price from 350. to 550. They added smoke, and their electronics instead , but even so. I love the SW-1, but ordered very few, cause IDK if all u guys are ready to pay 499. for an SW-1 that you all were paying about 350. for.
And honestly, as much as i like the SW-1, its never been a great seller. All the later SW's have always sold much better... FWIW..
