In the description of the Trump engine on Lionel's website, the last item in the list of features is "Fencing." I'm at a loss as to what fencing is in connection with a locomotive. What is it?

I don't know, and I haven't bought a new engine since I bought the Legacy K4 about 8 years ago, but that one I might just have to buy.... 
Could be handrails, or may refer to an Olympic sport.
I believe, in a real locomotive and its control software, "putting up the fence" is a term that allows the lead locomotives and distributed power units to be controlled at different power settings, such as the lead locomotives going over the top of a hill and going to idle, while the DPU still pushing up the hill with the rest of the train.

Can a Joe Biden locomotive be far behind.
Can't we leave politics out of our hobby?

to keep the protesters back 
Fencing, may be detailed handrails???
Maybe it's that "fence" wall along the southern border?
It's already sold out on some dealers sites lol
Bummer

I wish we could leave it out, but your first question the answer is, there already is one, https://www.thetrainshop.com/product/view/30-20800-1
Lionel has been making President boxcars for years, the Choo Choo Barn has a President display. He IS the President of The United States, and the childish comments on Lionel's Facebook page are disgusting. On the flip side my dealer had 4 orders in 15 min when it was announced, including mine..
I have one on order as well. Placed the order with my dealer once I received the ad from Lionel, that dealer is now sold out.
I was able to pre order one as well. Nassau still has a few left available

Ha!!
I imagine this one will look good double headed with the Bush 4141 loco and I know there are at least a few 4141 non powered locos out there....
I would like to see Lionel follow MTH and add a few pieces of Trump related rolling stock.
enjoy your toy trains...
