Special run details...MTH....Plans and a small change

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..

Yah - A 350 to 500 price jump is a Big Turn Off !!!!! Your other switcher offerings are looking better. 😜👍👍👍
