Can't open new Lionel catalog

I just tried it, and it is working for me using Firefox, running Windows XP Pro, although Lionel has not enabled the downloading of the catalog as of now.

Anyone else having a problem opening/ viewing the new Lionel catalog?  I get to the opening page and that's it. Page is locked. I'm using the Chrome browser but I also tried Firefox and MicroSoft Edge.  Edge, in fact, totally locks up. Clicking on the page icons at the bottom of the screen doesn't work either.

The PC is a Toshiba laptop with native Windows 10 and all updates installed. This is the URL i'm using http://catalogs.lionel.com/17c2/html5/.

Thanks,

Me, too. Edge, Firefox, and Chrome. Windows 10. Never experienced it before,

 I was going to see if an Adobe, or some other, plug-in was corrupted. Or, something.

Thanks for posting that download, Greg.

I just took a look with my iPad and it worked fine using the Dolphin browser.

Works for me using Chrome on Windows 10 with all updates.  Maybe try clearing your browser cache and deleting files in your AppData/Local/Temp folder. 

Downloaded the PDF file. Thanks for the link. Tried deleting history, cleared browser cache and deleted all the files in the AppData...Temp folder, but, didn't help. Same for FireFox. Does work on my Android phone, however. Page is HTML5, can this be the problem?

Hmmm. It's curious that so many of who use Windows 10 with all the updates, etc. cannot open the new catalog - even with Chrome. Oh, well. I'm losing interest in the project. It's 5:00 somewhere ...

I cant see the new catalog either with windows 10.

sometimes right clicking and opening in a new tab or window will do the trick.

go to the top right of explorer and click on the "..."

click on the  "open with internet explorer" 

That is what worked for me.  don't know how I found that.

I've been having trouble with both Lionel and MTH catalogs for quite some time. At least a couple months before this new catalog. Tried the various browsers, and nothing works. Very frustrating. It feels like something on the computer is no longer compatible with the viewing program, since both companies catalogs behave the same way.

I finally viewed the new catalog with IE, but couldn't zoom in on the pages. The PDF version also worked well enough to read the numbers, so I could formulate an order.

Worked okay with my Kindle which uses Amazon Silk.

Works fine on my Win10 & Chrome.

That said, a few weeks ago I had trouble accessing another web site. Long story short, I had to reset my Chrome and everything worked fine (beware, know your passwords as you will have to sign in to everything if to do this reset!).
