Ryan and Dave will be live on Facebook today Wednesday January 24th to discuss the 2018 catalog. Starts at 4pm EST. This is a live event so all your questions, comments, and concerns can be addressed in real time from the mouths of the Lionel folks. Tune in! The last show was very informative and a lot of questions were answered.

The show was much improved technically as I suspected it would be and the content was as good if not better than last. There was a lot to cover and Ryan and Dave with special guest Meegan covered a lot of ground in the catalog. They touched upon the swinging bell on the H-10 and even addressed the Mogul progress. They promised another show soon to get through the rest of the catalog including Flyer, the new IVR2, and HO.
Dave gave away something that a lot here on the forum have been waiting answer for. Did anyone catch it???? Dave will post more this week.

Yes, I'm glad I don't work for Lionels service department.
It's not gonna be fun pulling wheels and pressing out gearshafts to change out the gearsets on those moguls. Especially while trying not to nick or mar anything.
It was very informative. Dave is sure putting forth his best effort as the"new guy".
Marty,I didn't see the question and answer segment this time. Are they going to answer the questions via comment on the Facebook page?
I'm not complaining ,just curious.
I've exchanged emails with Dave in the recent past, prompt would be an understatement regarding his reply.

They did answer a few. It was my impression because they were trying to get as much catalog info in they did less Q&A. That said, they also said to comment on the video or email and they would try to respond to all the questions. I think that was towards the end.

Anyone have a time in the video for the Mogul discussion? Watched a few sections of it but really don't have time to sit and listen to it start to finish. Thanks.
It was in the first 5-10 minutes.

I listened to them. To me it sounded like the H10's listing of a swinging bell was a catalog error, a printing oversight they originally thought about but dismissed and should have been omitted. I'd be surprised if it makes it to production..

Dave O's response to the Mogul - " Oh yeah, the Mogul..... yawn...... "Can we just get to the catalog now"!
Incredible the lack of remorse or concern. Just get on to them new products!

I think you are reading way too much into that.

Yup, it's called sarcasm and humor.

Communicating with Dave, the way I have since October and knowing what he went through to make this right. Your statement couldn't be more in left field if you tried.
The show was about the new catalog, frankly I'm surprised he mentioned the Mogul, glad he did.
Didn't hear any mention of the Milk Cars ?
My LHS says June ?

METCA has 2 custom exclusive Milk Reefers that are getting produced at the same time as Lionel's cataloged ones. June is the target for ours, so the info from your LHS sounds spot on.

So instead of forming an opinion of his spoken words through his statements and actions, everyone should contact you to find out his true feelings?

They covered a lot of ground and didnt make it through the catalog but they show enthusiasm for their product. And gave us a mogul service update to boot. A future show that would be great is a service Q and A /service tips with Ryan Dave and special guest Dean Brassuer!
I thought the show was great. And if folks didn't get it about the Mogul.... Its because they chose not to. I think Meagan was great! And showed a large amount of enthusiasm! Next time maybe they can speak to the LC and LC+ engines and more about the cars. Lots more to cover!
