I second this! Looking forward to reserving an SMR Made in the USA model. I would love to see SMR do some 1880-1900 era models too.

This was really good news. I also find it interesting that they can move their manufacturing back to the USA and lower the price 'several hundred dollars'. Goes along with a couple of articles I have read over the last couple years about other companies moving back to the USA and also lowering their prices. Makes one wonder why they can't all do that? I do believe this will be the new trend for manufacturing and we will see more of it happening.

Thank you Steve plus all others that commented here.  I really miss being there this fall and, hopefully won't have to do that again.  Heard lots of nice reports about the overall York fall meet, but certainly, missing the OGR forum meet was the worst. 

 

Look forward to seeing all of you next April.

Took some vacation time right after York and just got back.  Did NOT take either laptop or smart phone, so I am catching up now.  All the nice things you are saying about Steve's reporting are richly deserved, He is both accurate and entertaining.  We are all lucky to have him as our official Forum Historian for the Forum meeting.

 

Thank you Steve, you did a fantastic job.  I ought to know since I own the place

 

Appreciate all the work that went into your report.

Didn't hear any mention of Lionel's new multi-engine LionChief Plus controller or developments with the infrared sensor. What about the new high hood GP30s shown at the Lionel both and talked about on another thread - no discussion about those?

 

Uhhhh. This was the 10/14 report.
