Despite the rumors, my expectations are low for this vol2 because I think 2025 v1 will have lots of traditional sized with it being Lionel’s 125 anniversary.

yeah i'm just going on rumors. you are probably right as the traditional section is usaully smaller in the c2 catalog

I'm hoping I strike out on my wish list so I'm less tempted to make a purchase but the bottom line is that I enjoy catalog day!

I hear you!.  I just looked at this years "incomings" and between Base3, Halloween F-19, Halloween Passenger Cars, and the 2024 Engine of the year I am ready for a break.

if you like prr , pc or N&W you won't get a break lol

So we're finally getting Legacy GG-1's again, and that's great. I'm actually surprised they haven't been made more frequently just as regular Legacy models, like maybe every 2-3 years or something, IDK. I want some of the Vision Line releases they made in 2016, but of course they are hard to find and usually cost at least $2,000. So even though I probably won't get any GG-1 they show in the catalog right away, at least having them exist in the first place is a good thing for later in the future. I can hold off on some older items I want because they seem to be common enough that I don't have to worry too much about missing out on them.

I might have mentioned this already, but the other thing I want Lionel to make again are their N5/N5B cabooses, because that's another item that I want that was made only one year so far, and now they are difficult to find, especially the Long Island version.

Halloween...its right in front of you. Orange GG-1 5 black stripes, skull and cross bones instead of Keystone. You almost have all the lettering

i have a prediction that AREA 51 is gonna make a big comeback in this catalog . i can feel it as if the aliens are telling me "Earthling behold for an Area 51 release so out of this world that your godparents will have to say yes"

i could be wrong who knows

Is tomorrow or Thursday the big day?

Wednesday is the day.  10:00 am EDT.

How about the long awaited CC2?

The PRR J1a's were just done a couple of catalogs. The market is filled with them.

But A PRR k2sa, K3 or a K5 I'm in!

And at 10:01AM I will be sitting on my sofa with my iPad pouring over all the new info with a cup of coffee.  I am looking forward to it!

Yeah , unfortunately I missed out on all of them .

Tomorrow is the big day and fingers crossed for some New England equipment, especially steam era pieces!

The new catalogue arrived yesterday in the US Mail.  

It came as part of LCCA membership

You are lucky.

I have been meaning to join, and admittedly don’t know all the benefits.  But that is for another time and a different thread.

I hope my catalog will be delivered tomorrow. It usually comes several days after the catalog is released on-line. Maybe I’ll be lucky this time.

A relief to me is that there are no new BR-CB&Q items in the new catalog because my wallet needs a break.😄

This is a relief because the last catalog had the following items offered:

BR-C&S 2-8-0, recently delivered

BR-C&S-FW&D E5/E6 ABB set

BR 7 Car 21” Zephyr Set

BR-CB&Q Motorcar

BR-CB&Q 2-4-2

BR-CB&Q Gold Boxcar with FreightSounds

Five of the above items have not yet been delivered.  Looking forward to their release !!!

The new catalog does have the following item of interest to me:

plastic coal loads for 2, 3, & 4 bay hoppers and

a GN Hotbox Reefer car.

hey bill

is the traditional o section nice and healthy

Got it today

I like how they bookended the covers of volume 1 and volume 2.  

So far I guess the GG1 is the most interesting.

i am really anxious to see the traditional section as thats my area of collecting

i prefer the toylike o gauge over scale stuff anyway

I love my mountain from the last catalog. I may have to get another!

SD40-2 in BNSF (patched ATSF, H1, or H3 Swoosh) or ATSF Blue/Yellow Warbonnet livery please! Also, put it in a set with modern freight cars in ATSF or BNSF livery. I was hoping for a Legacy GP38-2 in BN or BNSF (patched BN, H1, or H3) livery, not an LC+2.0 version.

Add a Vanderbilt tender to that Mountain and I am in!

Yes, many ! (including brass tender)

There are tenders with 4-wheel trucks and some with 6-wheels. There are rounded ones and boxy ones. (Sorry I am not a tender expert so I don't know their precise style names.)

Liveries are Alaska, Santa Fe, Seaboard, NC&STL, New Haven, Southern, Tennessee Central, and Texas & Pacific

No, just Penn Central, Reading Bee Line, Savannah & Atlantic, Wabash, Virginia, and Ferromex.

No worries, the rounded ones are called Vanderbilt tenders. I'm curious if the New Haven version has the Vanderbilt tender, if so I'm in!

what are the roadnames for the lionchief 2.0 GP38?
