Blowouts, will they hinder future production

I have a feeling that Lionel is not long for this world.

where can you find these blowouts?

One of the forum sponsors, Pat's Trains, has some good deals on Williams.

The final determination of Lionels strategy is when Calabreze reviews Lionel's bottom line with Guggenheim Capitol Management. They are the ones that will determine if Lionel's marketing strategy is acceptable or not. Lionel's portfolio better be in the black for Guggenheims investors.

I took advantage of the blowouts.I bought the three digit B&O EM1 a C&O Mallet and the ATSF 3759.I have preordered three new Legacy locomotives but I'm not paying anywhere close to MSRP. IF they blow them out later,I'll just buy more.Like Jim Sutter said:"Take advantage of these sales if you can."

We are in a "golden age" of O gauge/scale trains.People like me in thier 50's and 60's who have been in the hobby a long time have never had it better.In the next couple of decades,I don't foresee having the huge selection we have nowadays.There will always be a market for electric trains,it will be smaller and the high end even more so. Let's enjoy the bounty of beautiful trains we have.

They've been around longer than GM, maybe an "o guage bailout" is due.
