Lionel had alot of the Christmas items, and clocks and such on display. I was skeptical about a lot of these items but they all look really good. It seems the days of slapping Lionel's name on and item to get a buck maybe going away. It looks as if the item has to have some quality behind it. Very impressive.
Case in point, a pre production newspaper type bag was there. I was told that the sample was rejected because it didn't hold weight. It will be re-enforced before being produced.
