My hopes:
- Canadian National 6060
- Premier PRR I1sa Decapod #4488 (Post-War)
- Reading & Northern Auxiliary Tender
- Reading & Northern Pullman Parlor Car 3
My guess that it will come out on April 10th.

How about one of new AMTRAK Engines!!!

In addition to that, Amtrak Superliner cars in the Phase IVb paint scheme!!!!
I don’t really care what it is but I want MTH to impress me. Wow me, Show us something’s thats a must own and gets everyone’s attention. Mth has the tooling, Has the tech, But their missing the wow factor. I know everyone’s relying on their current tooling. Hopefully they are rebuilding for a strong showing to come. If not they in trouble.
The equivalent of Lionel's sensor track. I know, dream on.
Probably because they were trying to clear out the steam locomotives from their warehouse, but now there's not as many. So hopefully they'll come up with something new.
New tooling! (anything new would be good!!)

I get it. But I mean c’mon. Change your structure to build to order then.

I would be shocked...
If they can't do new toolings, there's always high end brass steam engines.
Because it would be questionable for this year's train budget, I'm certain a CF7 will appear. If not in the MTH catalog, then from 3rd Rail.
May I add Premier DM&IR Yellowstones with White Wall tires?

Rotflol! Good luck with that one!
Maybe we can see a plain Jane Conrail GP38-2! The only one that was done by MTH was a PS-1 version in Conrail Quality scheme.
It's about time the "Blue RR" that changed the Northeast Railroading scene gets some respect in O gauge!
Also. How about a PRR torpedo tube GP7!
The new NS with the yellow nose

I too have been waiting for a plain CR GP38-2. I’d be in for a couple.
A freakin PRR aux tender would be lovely
How about the original Metroliners in PRR,Penn Central and Amtrak?
I've been waiting for a PS3 Burlington Northern GP7 or GP9. Other than that, a re-run of the Veranda Turbine would suit me just fine since I missed out a few years ago.
Still patiently waiting for a Southern 630/722 Consolidation. The Savannah & Atlanta 750 Pacific would be nice too.
B&O Hudson, RAilking Imperial, But Premier will do, too
A PRR P5a boxcab...….So my zinc rotted shell can finally get replaced.
How about additional 19th Century rolling stock? Like a matching bobber caboose for the Fall Brook Coal Co. 4-6-0, from the 2018 V1 catalog?
As it was explained to my by a Lionel rep, the license fees that would be charged by Siemens would likely prohibit an O gauge manufacturer from producing the ACS-64 (just not enough volume to make it a good business decision).
In addition, they would try to prohibit the manufacturer from producing "fantasy" schemes in order to sell more units as O gauge makers tend to do. I doubt we'll see the ACS-64 from MTH or Lionel anytime soon.
I would be happy if MTH would up their game a bit more in the sound department...specifically steam. Every steam engine they put out sounds the same me.
Wouldn't mind seeing them dump those flangeless wheels on their Premier E8's, PA's, Rectifiers, etc. either.
Would love to see CNW Hudson and passenger cars again. It's been a long time since they were released. Or CNW E8 with Bi-level cars. Or Metra Bi-level and diesel again.
Or how about a Ringling Brothers stuff? With K-Line gone, why not MTH?
Premier PRR GP7
Amtrak Viewliners
Newly tooled 18" combo cars in smooth and ribbed sides.
E-8's in Canadian Pacific Beaver Logo, Southern Pacific Daylight and Black Widow, and Erie Lackawanna(yet to be done).
1. Tier 4 modern diesels.
2. Re issue the Railking RBMN 425 because I couldn’t get one because once those engines shipped, they disappeared within a week.
Tier 4 modern diesels for me too
A Railking GG-1 in the as-delivered paint scheme. Anything modern from GE in the Premier line. Modern unit trains.
Bill
A scale Santa Fe 3160 class Mikado would be nice, especially one that was more affordable than Lionel's recent brass hybrid. Another nice option would be a scale Southern Pacific F5 class 2-10-2. But I doubt either of those will happen.
New tooling--- not going to happen.
Improvement of sounds-----not going to happen, not on Mike Wolfs radar.
Tier 4 diesels----only if prior tooling can be used for most of it.
Best you can expect is new paint schemes and fantasy schemes on old tooling.
Dave
I’m more interested in neglected road names.
Chicago & Eastern Illinois, Morristown & Erie, Maine Central, Columbus & Greenville, more.
Atlantic Coast Line/Seaboard Coast Line GP7 in the black and yellow paint scheme. We all did not eperience the purple units.
Atlantic Coast Line ore car set...as shown.
I know...I am dreaming.
How about this...6-car set would be nice...but, I think Lionel owns the old Weaver molds.
CF7
Matt, see line one.
I like a E3b.
John, see line one.
NAAAHHHH
WHAT! NEW!!! nahhhh
RF&P GP7 and LIRR engines.

Agree with everything! There will also likely be more stuff with colored LEDs.
Reissues of the Premiere NS Heritage Fleet, so I can finish off the units I need and can't seem to find on the secondary market!
