For a second catalog, lots to look at, over 140 pages, I-12's and a GG-1 LC+2.0 for me.
Enjoy your trains...

LC+ GG1 Oh yeah! Any vision line reefers for the big boy and is there a 49er big boy?
TRAINLOVER9943,
Just regular plug door reefers, I did not see a 49er, just a selection of UP. EM-1's are well represented.

Ah cool. What paint scheme of the GG1s are offered and are there any other LC+2.0 engines in the catalog?
TRAINLOVER9943,
GG-1, there are five painted versions to select from (2 tuscan, 1 silver, 2 brunswick green), also SD80 MACS in LC+2.
Sweet! Can't wait to see what the rest of the catalog has!
Where did U see the 2nd Issue? I didn’t think it was out until July 22 !!!
Dealers have info already I'm sure, maybe even catalogs, the last one was leaked early.
Some shop must be leaking it again. I know my dealer got a list but he ain't talking.
Can someone post a link?
Shame that they didn't make an Amtrak LC+ GG1, as far as I heard.
GG1 LC 2.0 is what I've been waiting for. But if no Amtrak scheme, I will have to wait longer!
What scale are the EM-1s?
I'm really excited for this!
Just out of curiosity I looked on ebay. They're on there.

One of the catalog listings on the "auction site" has some page photos.

Had a good local laugh over one selection. Our first trains customer for the day was looking for some WBB non-aluminum passenger cars in SP's Daylight colors to go behind his new WBB Daylight steamer. He had been trying to pull a complete train of Lionel aluminum passenger cars so decorated. Claimed the engine hardly had enough moxie to pull three! (???).
Anyhow, when we were leafing through the new catalog we came across Lionel's new offering of the single-truck camp cars.........you guessed it!.....in SP's Daylight colors. Yep.....Just what the customer will need....sleepers, coaches, diner,.......why, I'll bet his WBB 4-8-4 can pull a couple dozen of those cuties!!
And that new Santa Fe 'Blue Moose'?.....a 3751 painted in 'Goose Blue and Silver'!?!?!? Holy Moly!
And LOTS of BTO's........the new norm.
All in all.....
Great picture! If I was doing marketing for Lionel, I would make that child the poster boy.
looking forward to new catalog - want some high-end steam and hopefully something Canadian.

I'm in for the Morristown & Erie S-2 Alco switcher.... hope there's a matching caboose....
Hopefully the Bush train is in there

The President and Barbara are smiling up in heaven. You will not be disappointed.
Enjoy your trains...
link please...
Let me be the first to say there's nothing in that catalog that piques my interest ... and those prices! OMG!! They are killing the hobby! Just kidding, I have yet to see the catalog.
What, me worry?
The GG1 is a welcome sight. Not sure about the price of $499. Have to check the mark downs offered.
A few off the auction site. I'm impressed with this catalog. I'm definitely in for the Frisco 4500, Alaska F7's, and excursion 4014.

Could we see the George Bush Funeral train?
They'll sell a ton of GG1s. That was one of top responses to several threads polling interest in what Lionel should make in the Lion Chief Plus line.

I'm sure they will. I'm just not sure if I want to spend 500 on one. I could buy a lot of post-war goodies with that money.
If one of the big guys has it marked down enough I will probably spring for one though.
I'm goin' whole hog buying Hobos!
I hear the Norfolk southern OCS is in there
Here’s an EBay link with some more pictures. So far the only thing I’m interested in getting is the First Run Edition of the 4014. Looking forward to see what the rest of the catalog has!

Did someone say Norfolk Southern OCS?...
So far, nothing for me. I need to see the whole catalog. Steam engines and GG-1's are auto-fail as are first generation diesels from eastern roads. I've gotten very particular in my old age.
What is a Norfolk Southern OCS?...

Some bizarre steam. I do seem to see 2 Frisco 4-8-4's - repainted ATSF 3751 and classmates - which is interesting, in a way. Has not MTH offered Frisco 4-8-4's based on their tooling of the (larger) 2900-class ATSF 4-8-4's?
Now Friscoites (I'm one, minor league) can collect 'em all!
Let's see this blue goose!
