The Story Behind the 1997 Lionel Vision Camera

Fairly certain there was an article in OGR magazine about these items. They were part of the HORDE tour which was brought to one of the TCA York show shows in the late 1990s. The Juliens auction catalog of Neil Young's train collection had some of these items listed.

And many of the items just sold on ebay over the weekend including the Lionel Vision Line Dash 8 non powered Camera engine and the Horde Dash 8 shell

If you mean these ones, you’d be right!

I missed out on the blue and white camera Dash 8 (by $10 at that, which sucks), but it is nice to get two actual Lionel prototypes, and that were in Neil Young’s collection at that!

Good job!

its a shame this concept died

i've waited years for a camera engine even asked about the possibilty of of one being that we have caboose cameras and dome cameras how about an engine camera
