Lionel 2013 catalog?

We don't know.... Lionel has been releasing catalogs at different dates than in the past.... could be April before we see one....

Usually, the Signature catalog comes out somewhere in March or April (right before York) and Volume 2 catalog comes out anywhere in August or September.  No one knows for sure until somebody starts leaking info or dropping hints of possible upcoming products.

2013 RTR should be out very shortly.

As Charlie from Nassau Hobbies pointed out in the MTH & Toy Fair thread, look for expanded use of Lionel's starter set remote.  Anyone notice this on the Lionel website yet ?

I asked Lionel this on their facebook page it was sometime last week. They told me that the catalog is being proof read.

 

Bill

It is done 96 pages and lots of Remote sets. It ships to dealers shortly

Come on Charlie, throw us a couple more bones!

 

How about a "juicy" scale steamer leak?

 

Yes, yes, where are all the hints...  "If you build it, he will come"

 

 

Well I am hoping for more auto racks...at least a few more......Paul

I'm hoping for more big locos that are transformer driven and have whistle steam and other effects.  Why?...they're somewhat inexpensive and allow us newbies to really have fun without needing special remotes or $1000 engines.  I'd also love to see more B&M stuff...or even a New Hampshire Central Steam locomotive!!  I can dream right? haha.  Looking forward to the new catalog.

Feb LCCA Lion Roars has a one page article regarding Lionel's remote operating system that debuted in last years 30190 Thomas set.  Expect to see in 2013 a remote James set, Percy set and Diesel set.  Also the PRR Flyer to feature this new style remote.

Ed,

 

Isn't that a baseball movie?

 

I wonder if there will be any baseball trains in the Lionel catalog.

 

Stu

Jdon rease of lionel (hope I spelled his name right)told me at the world greatest hobby show in st. Louis that about ten new starter sets were in the pipe line with the new remote in them. He was very nice as was tom nuzzio.

Yes, big expansion of Remote sets. Catalog was not at Toy Fair in time but will be out next week. I will be back in NY this weekend in time for our big annual sale. www. nassauhobby.com

 

Stuart - What would ever give you that idea ? 

Hi Charlie-

 

Thanks for the info...  Is this the traditional catalog next week or the signature catalog next week?

 

Thanks very much!

 

 

Well, 10 sets with the new remotes sounds great!  I think it is time to pick one up, hopefully Lionel will have a new FT passenger set out.

Thanks for the hints!!

I am hoping this years catalog is canceled, on account of my empty wallet.

This is the RTR set catalog. The Signature Cat. Is due out around April

I just wish product hit the shelves same day as the catalog...

I am guessing that there will be an Illinois Central Gulf GP38-2 set in the Ready-to-run 2013 catalog.

Will they ever catalog the O Gauge BN, BNSF, TTX, and TTX red logo Maxi-Stack articulated intermodal container car set?

While I do have a copy of the new catalog. I have been asked NOT to reveal details till Thursday. That said I have a plane to catch back to NY. Don't forget our BIG monster once a year sale. Details at www.nassauhobby.com

 

PS Andrew, you will be happy. :-)

Will it be online Friday?

I don't know when it will be but we will have it up by then! www.nassauhobby.com

If Lionel does not have it on their site by Tuesday, perhaps it will be on the Nassau Hobbies website on Tuesday.

 

 

 

Andrew

yes this would certainly be a great set, as Lionel has yet to do a starter set with just

maxi stack cars.

So, that means under a week until the joy and despair begins. 

 

Good Day,

 

I'd like to see a 21st Century Maersk set!

 

Regards,

Swafford

See, they can post it, but I can not! :-)

 

"Trainchief" is coming!

As always, thanks for the info Charlie...  Looking forward to it even if it is just the RTR catalog.

Some new paint schemes otherwise the RTR didn't change much. Don't ask that's all I'm sayin.

>>See, they can post it, but I can not! :-)<<

 

My LHS already has customer copies. Don't see why you can't post pictures..
