Good news! Lionel has reduced the price on the  11180 CSX SD80 Motor City Express Set from $1149.99 to $969.99. That means the new pre-order price is $780.

 

Pretty decent price drop for a nice set.

 

The individual auto carriers 6-27473 and 6-27492 also dropped from $149.99 to $109.99. The new pre-order price on those is $79.00.

I don't doubt for a heartbeat that our "analysis" of the MTH price-points for their similar-length scale auto-carriers gave Lionel a much-needed reality check.     All else being equal, there was just NO reason to pay the ridiculous premium that Lionel wanted.  Even at the new Lionel "street price" of $79/car though, you can build a HUGE train today with MTH auto-carriers for much less $/car if you shop smart.
