Any sightings or reviews of recently released LionChief Plus NW2 switchers ???

About a week or so ago there was a post discussing the Milwaukee Road engine and that was it. I was wondering if they made any mechanical or sound changes in the new engines

I have the B&O from the first release a couple of years ago and it's become a favorite of mine - runs great / never skips a beat

Interested in the Pennsy and Nickel Plate

Thanks in advance

Hi Joe: I do have the LionChief Plus, Milwaukee Road Item #6-85063. I am in the process of publishing a YT Video on my channel. I did find two things wrong with this locomotive and it will have to go back to Lionel.

Look for this video on my YT Channel the week of, February 11th. Below is the YT Thumbnail.

Hey Mark - completely missed your post and you are absolutely correct we need to let the train world know when we are happy with a purchase

That MKT version looks awesome - the Nickel Plate is calling my name

Lionel has done a great job with these switchers - scale detailing / modern running and electronics in a postwar engine

Thanks for posting

I purchased a lionchief Angela trota Thomas Christmas pacific steam just before Dec. 25th to run under the tree. It has run flawless to say the least. It was my first lionchief engine and went and bought the FT aa set. These engines are fantastic IMHO, and look forward to my new grandson getting to run them. No complaints here what so ever with these items. In fact will add more to the roster. Just ordered a Susquehanna go-20 plus from Charles ro who is blowing them out at 139.99.   Can’t get any better then that. Didn’t mean to steal thread, but compliments and credit were due. Good job Lionel.
