Lionel 6-82026
I just noticed that the picture of the subject item in the Lionel 2016 Signature Edition catalog, page 147, does not match the description. The picture shows the older, solenoid-actuated chute; but the description states:
"Upgraded servo control for smoother, quieter operation of hopper chute."
Yes, servo actuated is much smoother than solenoid. Curiously, Lionel website for this Coaling Station does not mention the upgraded servo feature, which begs the question: is the printed catalog or is the website correct?
