Ordering Parts From Lionel

Any parts I've ordered online from Lionel were in my hand within a week from the day they were purchased.

 

I suspect the delays may have been caused by the recent move from Ohio to North Carolina. Thats all done, and Lionel service/parts is back to buisness.

 

The forum sponsors are good as well, they will likely be a bit cheaper as Lionel charges flat rate shipping.

 

Brassuers Electric Trains, and Boxcar Bill at MTTPonline. com are a couple of sponsors to start with.

Jerry,

 

   We have what you need in stock, check us out.

I placed an order with Lionel last Wednesday and it's being delivered tomorrow. I would order from Boxcar Bill if he has the parts you need. His shipping is more reasonable and quicker then Lionel.

I've always received parts from Lionel very timely.  Just make sure you wait around for the UPS guy because they require a live signature for delivery.

Having bought used Lionels with missing, broken parts. I second the above recommendation, besides, I always find something else to add to take advantage of shipping, and they are sponsors.

When ever I order parts from Lionel they ship the next day.You can't ask for more.I usually have them in 4-5 days.Nick

Lionel flat charges for priority shipping on parts. You'll get them quickly, but for that order the shipping will be almost as much. So, there are times when I can wait, that I call other suppliers for a regular mail postage shipping.

 

Regarding processing time, it's out the door pretty fast. I find that is the case with most of our sponsor's. The question is, do they have it in stock.

 

You could try Trainz for that order as they stock quite a bit of new parts including boards. Charlie Ro may have that stuff also and ship it regular mail.

 

 

I ordered some parts over the weekend.  They were shipped  out on Monday, and I expect them to be delivered today.  Pretty fast by my estimation.

Very easy and very prompt.

I haven’t had the need to try ordering a specific part from Lionel…yet! 
From everything I’ve read it appears to work well, with a quick turnaround
I’m not sure but I think they ship free to Veterans…might want to ask about that?
