Does anybody know if someone is going to pick up the tooling for
this item? It makes a big difference to me as the MTH version has
the Bump N Go feature, in "dream scenario", Menards would. I take
the Lionel cartoon figures and graft them onto the MTH Hand Cars. Wire track
to 4" light up momentary button, you'll have kids lined up to try. Rivetcounter
admirers, not so much. Works with wider radii track, 072" best, 054" a couple derails
per hour. UnclePeteRR

I don’t believe I have ever seen a Lionel handcar with the bump and go mechanism and I have about twenty of them in my collection.
MTH still has the RailKing tooling and is continuing production. Remember, MTH didn’t completely close up shop. As for its production plans, or what tooling will be sold to other companies as time wears on, only MTH knows. Supposedly an announcing is coming soon about another transaction involving an unnamed buyer.
