Good Evening Everyone,
Well, since I haven't seen anybody starting rumors or leaking info about the upcoming Lionel 2020 Vol. 1 catalog, I figured I may as well get the pot stirred.
I haven't seen the catalog yet, but yesterday I did see some of the item lists/price sheets. I did not pay to much attention to the traditional items or Christmas items.(but I did notice a traditional set with "warp drive"
for you Trekkies. The list did not say what the set consisted of).
As far as the scale sized and scale PRICED stuff, there are Vision Line hybrid GS-4's coming out the wazoo in many schemes including a Chessie Steam Special(huh ?). MSRP of the hybrids looked to be $1999. The Freedom Train GS-4 and T-1 steamers are also being offered again along with 2 new 2 packs of Freedom Train passenger cars. The list didn't say which cars they would be. There are also various auxiliary tenders including a Freedom Train one. There is also a Preamble Express listed for either $799 or $899, can't remember which. No list details, but I hope it would be the E8/9 with the four passenger cars all in the Preamble paint scheme. Also saw some SD40's and the 3 packs of the sound car reefers of box cars. Too much to remember-I believe the catalog is about 240 pages long. Maybe a couple of you know of some other top secret stuff coming up next week.
