LC + 2.0 New Features

I think they went out of their way with the new Legacy board to make it mesh with the LC+ 2.0 stuff.  It'll be interesting to get the two types in hand and compare the operation.

Just saw a LC 2.0 0-6-0T set on trainworlds new arrivals page. Hooorah

That's good news, I should get mine soon.

for some reason seems like only the sets came in,  not individual LC 2.0 0-6-0T locomotives

That's a bummer!

Trainworld no longer lists the LC 2.0+ 0-6-0 locos - anyone know why?

RE: The 0-6-0Ts.  Just received the latest email blast from Charles Ro and these are indeed in at Ro.

Also, some LC GP38s, passenger car sets, sound box cars, milk cars, and a handful of other rolling stock.

Credit cards ready.

No idea, but I think Charles Ro and Nassau usually get their Lionel preorders in/out before Trainworld. That's just a guess on my part. I order from all three for my Lionel and I've noticed that pattern in the past.

My PRR A5 has been out for a year and has those features.

Looks like they put them in the "steam locomotive" catagory instead of the Lionchief catagory:

...there they are - thanks!

I'm interested in picking one up. Has anyone run their's yet? How do you like it, how do they perform?

I see TrainWorld are selling them at the MSRP, why buy there?

The LC2.0 engines have 5 pitch levels of a single horn/whistle.

Legacy engines have 5 different horn/whistle options, though sometimes we'll use the same whistle and a different pitch, like with the B6 Banshee.

All will have the bell with the 5 different pitch levels.

looks like all the 0-6-0T's are back ordered at Charles Ro - bummer.

Give them a call. They probably haven't updated the website since these just arrived. Johnstrains above has one on the way from Ro.  They almost always have extras.

Yep. Just checked and Ro hit my CC last night for the 0-6-0T. On the way.
