Strasburg #90 (red roof, pinstripes).
I want the new BNSF Coal Train Set, the BNSF SD70MAC #9647 (AKA: The Vomit Bonnet), the BNSF Patched BN SD70MAC, the BNSF H3 SD70MAC, or the BNSF SW1200. I will probably just get the BNSF Coal Train Set. The SW1200s are nice, and I could use a smaller diesel switcher on a future layout. Plus the SD70MACs will run on O36 Curves, which is what I have now.
UP DD35A #77
I ordered - ahem - quite a bit (i.e, everything) of S.P. locs ++ from the 2020 catalog. Great product that works. Hey! Product quality is uniformly good.
From this catalog:
1. The throw-back 773 as I have all previous Lionel 773 offerings (I believe four from 1950 on) and this looks to be beauty in LionChief 2.0. Does anybody really need more than that?
2. The 4276 Cab Forward / Grey Boiler. A beauty!
3. Possible ... S.P. 4-12-2
4. Possible ... Grand Canyon set. Nice.
Great catalog. Thanks, Ryan and Dave!
I'm ordering P&R car 10. I'd love to do the who 90 set with the Strasburg cars, but just cannot do it right now.
LIRR c-liners with cars & a cab forward
I’m getting the DD35 #77 and a Genesis. I’m debating on the 4-12-2, but don’t know what to think about the exposed wires.
I also preordered a NKP 2-8-0 from Mr. Muffins. Hope they get enough preorders to make the custom runs.
For those getting the C-Liners, what is the biggest draw to getting them? I hadn’t heard of them before this week. I read a little about the engines but wanted to hear from the folks who preordered why you are excited about them. (The demonstrators are nice looking)
ordered a bunch of stuff - hopefully won't all arrive at same time!
Ordered HLMX and CN 86' graffiti boxcars and the CP camera caboose from Charles Ro. The caboose is way overpriced, but I have been looking for that paint scheme for a long time.
I have the UP and CSX 86' graffiti boxcars from a previous run , and they are superb
Nothing of interest to me.
First, I love the catalogs! For many years, all I could afford was the catalog, it really was and still is a "dream book". If I could pick one item, it would be the Hustle Muscle Freight Set. I did get the Great Northern version of the SD45 engine and really liked it. The freight cars are all desirable, especially the SP&S Caboose. I have the MTH version of it, but this on has the camera. I tend to focus on railroads that operated in the Pacific Northwest and this set checks all the boxes...
My deepest thanks to the Lionel Team for their efforts to keep our dreams alive during a most challenging environment due to the COVID19 shutdowns. So, the only way to truly say "Thanks" is to call my friends at Eastside Trains in Kirkland and place an order for this set! Best,

Not much, was hoping for the 20th Century Limited.
Short list of considerations
2233088 - BN SD45 Super Bass
2226010 - Erie Hobo Sound Car
2226290 - NYC Flat car with fire truck
I like the PRR SD45s. However, I need to do some research on them before I order. Not sure.
I’ll probably get the C&I two bay hoppers. That line was in my back yard so I feel obligated.
I'm going to get the Cambria & Indiana bicentennial coal set
Possibly the add on 2-bay hopper add on pack
The reading 2-bay hopper pack
Possibly the Norfolk southern 2-bay hopper pack
And one of the hobo sound cars

RT, you do know that 773 is the small Hudson? Not a 773 semi-scale?
I did not find any items of particular interest in this catalog. I was intrigued by the introduction of a GE P42, but would have been interested in a scale version of it to pull my GGD Amfleet and Viewliners.
However, outside of a random purchase here and there, I am getting close to the point of train saturation in having accurate models of nearly everything I'm interested in. I can't believe I'm actually writing that. 
A few things, highlights of which are the Lionel Lines 773 and the Strasburg #90. A couple accessories.
Lots of cool stuff in this catalog. I'm sure I will find some more things. Just wanted to be sure to get those two ordered
Hard maybe on one of the Strasburg no. 90’s. The prices for them are very high, but since it’s a very popular and well known locomotive it’s also anyone’s guess how many of these (especially the paint scheme I want) will stay on the dealers’ shelves when they arrive.
More than likely I will preorder a few of the Strasburg wooden passenger cars however, since I have a good feeling those won’t stay in stock for long when they arrive next year…
@Darrell posted:Can't afford anything from that catalog!
Once again I didn't find a thing that interested me, but that is me. Plus I am not interested in fake or fantasy trains like a Milwaukee Road 4-12-2! Let alone the price and Lionel's prices in general. Incredible increases.
I pre-ordered an Erie Hobo Sound boxcar.
