I feel jerry is one of the best CEO'S lionel has had! Great interview! I remember when he was announced to the position some people thought he was the wrong hire. Guess they were totally wrong. With him at the helm lionel seams to be leading the pack with legacy, faststrack and more product than any time in lionels history over the last 10 years. Just my opinion! Made in america again! Hope he can get it done! Way to go jerry!! Thanks for listening to us the lionel faithfull!! Long live the big L!!!!!!

Thank you for the positive feedback.  I agree with all of these comments.  I think Jerry Calabrese is the right man for the job at this critical time.  I find Jerry to be very interesting and exciting every time we meet with him.  He is very well aware of the issues facing our hobby and is focused on the financial objectives and responsibilities as the CEO of  Lionel.  Lionel is an American iconic company which elicits many strong emotions and opinions about their initiatives and products.  The Lionel Collectors Club of America (LCCA) is committed to work with Lionel to  perpetuate and foster an interest in Lionel trains and in the hobby in general.
