Legacy Ships Next Week!

Thanks Charlie!!!!!!!!!! Can we expect anything else next week. Thank You

Yeah! We will not have to hear about this anymore!

Dang I knew I should have eBay'd mine last week

Though if I was Charlie I would have waiting till the sets come in and post a picture of him standing next to them

Patience rewarded. Glad to see it's before Christmas 

Thanks for posting that long awaited update Charlie.

What are all the complainers going to have to talk about now?

So true.

I was just thinking about that the other day.... its close to September now ... could another Christmas go by without them?

Great news for Lionel, their dealers ... and especially for people that love to play with trains, whether just around the tree or on big layouts.

Its starting to feel a little bit like Christmas.

(If the "Build To Order" Heavy Mikados really ship next month, it will really start feeling like Christmas.  

Maybe when the next DCS Release will be available?

As much as it's fun to kid, most folks have been patient and understanding.  I'm glad they'll finally get to experience Legacy!  Have fun guys and when you have a question pop over to the Legacy forum where there are a lot of folks willing and happy to answer and help.

Rest assured, John... There are plenty of items on the shipping schedule that are many MONTHS overdue, and a couple items are actually approaching 3 YEARS!

Oh no!  A complainer has jumped into the thread!

Not really, John.    I'm only waiting on a basic O-scale boxcar approaching 3 years since it's been catalog'd.  Aside from that boxcar, a Daylight CF and PE Berk, my eyes are now pretty much focused on a few select Standard Gauge items, which have thus far been arriving on schedule -- much to my wallet's dismay!!!    I can actually use a few shipping delays to be quite honest.  

I'm sure we'll be hearing plenty from folks waiting on Lionel aluminum passenger car sets.    But I'm thrilled to hear folks who've been waiting for 990 kits will finally have a chance to experience Legacy -- not to mention these shipments should put a halt to the crazy price-gouging that's been part of eBay for months now.  Definitely not one of the finer moments in our corner of the hobby world.

When is DCS 4.31 going to be released?

This is great news! - and I've only been waiting since early March of this year!

Heh. Preorder since June 1, 2013 from Legacy Station shortly after I purchased a Vision Genset. It'll be a welcome addition to say the least. 

What are all the complainers going to have to talk about now?

How about a Daylight Cab Forward?

Ohhhhh they will find something

Good news indeed for all those Big Boy Visionline buyers!  

AAAAHHHHHHH YYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!

Having enjoyed mine since the initial release, I’m so glad for all of you, especially those getting one for the first time. Hope you like it as well as I do, and just think, you won’t even have to return it to Lionel to get it upgraded right off the bat. 

Should be no need to return to Lionel for upgrades this round.  That was only for the original 1.0 software.

Yay! Been waiting almost two years for it (Since I got back into the hobby.)

Yay again...

.

Fantastic!  It arrives just when I need it!  Way to go Lionel!

Only I don't have my VL BB yet!  But I'll believe it when the 990 is in my hands.  As long as it's here before the BB, I'll be happy as the BB is my 1st Legacy locomotive.  I have 3 TMCC locomotives and the rest are conventional.  Now, any news on the matching BB reefers and caboose?

Hallelujah!

You might still be in luck, they did go up $50 in MSRP while we have been waiting.

Sure hope the squirrel has given his seal of approval, he looks pretty happy about it all.

I'm happy he approves! I feel much better now.  I should have also added above that I would bet Lionel is happier than the squirrel (or at least as happy).

Hopefully the squirrel will continue to post here and not leave us after his work has finished.

Further adding to the anticipated and now seemingly imminent arrival of the 990 sets, as a lowly "Joe Consumer" I received a back in stock notice from Lionel at 6:23 ET this evening. I can't even remember when I put myself on their notification list...seems like ancient history.

This is good news. Now all I have to do is wait three or four months to see if there are any recalls or firmware issues to deal with. Then I can decide if I want to get a Legacy system or not. My roster of Legacy locomotives is up to four (two steam, one electric and one diesel), but only the two steamers get much use. At least if I make the decision to buy a Legacy for my layout, I'll be able to get a new one with a warranty. And thanks to Mike Reagan, a Lionel warranty actually means something, which it didn't used to. 

Man-some people will gripe when they get to the Pearly Gates!  Unbelievable!

I'll echo what many have said to you new uses out there - You will certainly enjoy using the Legacy system!

Excellent news from a SUPER RELIABLE source!

Not sure what is more annoying, posters who complain, or posters who complain about others complaining. Maybe me complaining about both!!

Looking fwd to getting the 990.

The thread I started on the legacy forum has had almost 7000 views, so there seems to be keen interest in this subject.
