Be careful; just because the catalog says "whistle steam and swinging bell" doesn't mean they will arrive that way. Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on me.

Apparently we went down this road before... Back in February. Lionel stated they engineered the swinging bell Bell for this loco as a bunch of us have posted the deal breaker is lack of a swinging Bell. Even the Gunrunner was adamant that this loco has it or we will just upgrade the TMCC H9 version from years past and purchase the more accurate MTH Premier H10.
