What do you do to get the new MTH catalogs?

I believe you can pay a 1 time $5 charge and then they'll mail them to you. 

Go here and select "Request a Catalog"

Maybe they will send you one in the box with your 256 after it is repaired. But that may be a 2016 catalog

I usually get them direct from MTH at York (I paid the $5 to get on their list my first visit to York), and my LHS gives me a copy (which I pass on to my nephew).  Every once in a while MTH forgets and still mails me one.

If you don't have an LHS, or if they won't give you one, I'd pay the $5 and get on the MTH direct mailing list per the link Marty provided.

I joined the MTH Club, I also order a lot of MTH stuff at my LHS so he usually gives me one. He has them a lot sooner than MTH mails them out. I have ordered a few items online that I couldn't get/order at my LHS and have gotten catalogs with some of those orders also.

My LHS gives them to me for free. He gets them for free and gives them away for free. 

Captaincog...since we're both in CA...if you'd really like some MTH catalogs...I can send you everyone I have...many pounds of them...and you'll be all caught up.

Just pay the UPS ground shipping and I'll send them right to you.

Best deal around! I paid the $5.00 fee years ago, and if you don't pick them up at york they mail them to you! Always enjoy having a hard copy.....

I am thinking more like the 2027 catalog........that is if it ever does get repaired.

I am on the mth subscription for 5 years-still have not received my catalog from oct-getting disappointed with mth-sems mike is putting us o scale buyers on the back burner-our lhs in Daytona who was one of the first stores to carry mth called mike 3-5

times

to see if he come down for a day as there are a lot pf mth fans here-mike never called tony back ever-the lhs even offered to pay for him to come down-mike has a short memory who made him

Just go to my LHS and get it free!

Thanks so far for the responses. As far as going to my local LHS there is no one that carries MTH that is not at least an hour plus away from me and they charge for everything even to reset an engine to factory default if you want to use a remote commander. That charge was one reason I bought a DCS system and it was not from them since I found a used one that works fine. They do not hand out catalogs even when you do buy from them and I have but they still want to charge for the catalog. That is one reason I posted to see what everyone else does. Thank you.

I paid the one time fee twice, and never got one ether time. Anymore I just look online

Generally, I say "save a tree" and just look online. When I place an order, Charlie Ro eventually sends me one. Since I'm only interested in a couple of pages, catalogs don't excite me the way they did when I was younger. My bookshelves are full of catalogs that I don't look at anymore. With so many manufacturers producing so much stuff, it's not like the old days when the Lionel catalog was the only thing going.

I think you can contact MTH direct and see what they are now doing about them. Also if you have a dealer you do repeat bussines with they will usually slip one in the next shipment coming your way.

MTH sends me one, but sometimes my LHS has it faster, if I have hopes there is something in there I might want.  I usually pick it up at York to save MTH the

postage and a tree (duplicate catalogs, otherwise).  I find paging through it on the

net a nuisance.  I just got a call an MTH car came in.  I think it was out of a 2012

catalog.  Nothing in the 2013's, that I remember wanting, which is my biggest problem with any of them.

When I buy a MTH train from the LHS I ask for one. Jim was always good at giving. There was only one LHS that would not give me a free one. He wanted $5.00. At the time I was buying a MTH Premier and non power unit plus some rolling stock. I didn't get the free catalog and he didn't get the sale. Needless to say this place is now out of business over in Altoona.

I just figure if I am spending $500 the catalog should be free.

Haven't paid for a train catalog in years. I actually end up with multiples, especially Lionel. Get those from Charles Ro and others.  I think I've been getting MTH from Ready To Roll Trains. I buy much of my MTH/LCT tinplate from them.
