Error in Lionel 2024 0 Gauge Volume 2 Catalog?

PH1975OGR Forum Member

From time to time people have posted on the Forum about disparities/discrepancies they've found either in Lionel's on line catalogue or in the printed version. Well, I think I may have found one in Lionel's latest 2024 Vol. 2 on line catalogue.

Looking through it I noticed both CN and CP C-Liner A units advertised with 031 minimum curves required. Also advertised are matching B SuperBass units but with 054 minimum curves. This makes no sense to me so I'm assuming, particularly since the B unit depicted seems to have the same proportions as the A unit shown, that this may be erroneous and slipped by staff on their final check prior to publishing.

Just saying - but it's Buyer Beware.

There was another post where someone mentioned this. They said they contacted Lionel support and they did indeed say the 054 mentioned in the catalog was a typo.

I suspect there will be more corrections…….on the Conrail GG1 page, the minimum radius is O72……while on some of the other GG1 pages, it’s O54.

The scale Mountains are 21.5” long?! Maybe without the tender……..in fact, they probably all vary depending on which tender it’s paired with…..

The REA Vision Baggage is $299.99……..that’s the price for the regular version (which is nuts in and of itself!).

18” Aluminum 4 packs $1299.99, while the 2 packs are $599.99…….why $25 more per car if you are buying more of them?

So, I suspect we’ll see some changes……

Yeah, they'll change it by raising the price of the 2 pack.
