Most likely this thread is too late but I imagine there might be some time to throw out some ideas...
Since I got the scale S-2, be it without the whistle steam, but still legacy I guess I can't go with that.
So I submit the following.
A new scale GG1 with Legacy and all the goodies.
Re-release the Scale NKP 765. I know a lot of folks that missed the boat on this one. It would sell as well as the scale 1225.
Diner Sound cars w/ Legacy sound like in the NY series.
Replies sorted oldest to newest
I would like to see Budd RDC cars with Railsounds and Legacy.
I would like to see something new, not a rehash of what already has been made. How about some road names in steam engines that have rarely been made. Katy, NP, GN, T&P, ACL, Seaboard, how about the Timken 4 Aces and many many others. NYC had a few 2-6-6-2's and they have not been made! Something other then the Pennsy, SF, NYC (except for the one I mentioned)
Think outside of the box for once
I would buy a Pittsburgh and West Virginia 2-6-6-4 or a 2-8-2. While they were at it,a wood sided caboose would be nice. Perhaps Scott Mann would step to the plate on this one.

A CORRECT New York Central K-5 Pacific! I still can NOT believe that neither Sunset/3rd Rail, nor MTH, nor Lionel, nor Weaver has ever produced an O Scale version of this famous 4-6-2.
A whimsical "Paul Bunyan and Babe the Blue Ox" operating chasse gondola w/Babe chasing Paul around it. It would go great with any logging set.
Also, a caboose (even bobber) to go with my "P.Bunyan" Shay loco.
Finally, more traditional/conventional locos and rolling stock.
Take the already existing Vision Line Hudson tooling, the already existing scale Pere Marquette Berkshire tooling and make a scale 773 and a scale 726 to go along with the scale 671 in this catalog. And while your playing around with the already existing tooling make a re-release of the scale Polar Express. Maybe you could also take the already existing tooling and make some more of the scale 6464 PS-1 boxcars to be pulled around by my new scale post-war engines.
Legacy GG1. Sound car and extra cars for the Crescent passenger set. I would like to see a docksider in Legacy or Tmcc
If i was in the meeting id suggest this.
Offer Legacy engines with matching caboose that communicates engineer to conductor back up and running scenarios- preferably Legacy N&W Z1 and Caboose . Offer caboose in following catalog as coming soon.High price and a must have for the engine.
Easily removable section of shell(boiler) with complete smoke unit attatched for easy access. Offer free core exchange by mail under warranty -unplug old one plug new one in.
Save tons of warranty repairs cost for smoke unit -failure /abusers/dummies.
Take some of them Pacifics and give us a Presidential engine to pull those B&O cars and the Made in USA president cars.
Vision Yard Tower with random/or controlled REAL radio(walkie talkie) communications out of speaker.
Vision passenger car that ejects non ticketed passenger like a milk can.
Advanced brakeman car that walks on roof by magnet.
Vision SCALE ,pig, chicken and horse car. with stereo brakes like the cow car.
Patrick has a great idea. I would go for that. I think it may be something Lionel already has in the works. Definitely need a new Cab Forward for 2014, whether it be Vision Line or not.
I would like to see a re-release of some of the harder to find HOBO series.
Like Patrick's ideas as well. Especially the caboose.
With the LCS, tie the yard tower into the system and actually call the engine entering the yard. Leave room for maybe 16 different call outs.
More current-day diesels in all-diecast Vision Line!!!
(Also, why not offer them with fixed pilots?)
(Also, why not offer them with fixed pilots?)
An EXCELLENT suggestion!!!!!
I can hope for a Vision or Legacy ATSF 2900 Northern but I know it won't happen. A Vision ABA set of Warbonnet F3s, with speakers and smoke in every loco, would be very cool!
Baldwin 3-cylinder compound 4-10-2 in The Franklin Institute, Philadelphia (www.fi.edu)
East African Railways Beyer-Garratt 4-8-2 + 2-8-4 Class 59.
Baldwin demonstrator 4-8-4 No. 5101, built for the Lehigh Valley in 1931. An order for 10 more followed tests on the Seneca Division. They were called "Wyomings," after a valley around Wilkes-Barre, PA.
In 1944, former Lehigh Valley President Reville W. Brown became President of the Reading. Superintendent of Motive Power E. Paul Gangeware was on record advocating that the Reading make do with existing steam locomotives and dieselize as quickly as possible after World War II. But President Brown arranged the construction in the Reading Shops of 30 Reading T-1's (1945-1947) and 10 G3 Pacifics (1948). Nods to the Wyomings were the class letter ("T") and the numbers (5100 became 2100). That was a nice fit after the 2000-series I10sa 2-8-0's (2020-2049) that were rebuilt as T-1's.
A Chicago Great Western 2-10-4

Would love some of these. Also the Veterans SD60.

Cant wait for LCS ! Alot of new possibilities. I was thinking with the Neil Young series in this catalog ,maybe we will see some cool new stuff.
Legacy F-M H15-44 in Santa Fe zebra stripes.
East African Railways Beyer-Garratt 4-8-2 + 2-8-4 Class 59.
A sign, at some location in the U.S. outside of a large factory building reading Welcome, to the Home of Lionel Trains.
Fastrack Turntable with LCS/Legacy control.
Scale Polar Express with the matching cars, stationsounds hot chocolate car.
A Legacy Southern F3 or F7 AA unit, and a Legacy B&O Dockside switcher!
Any Erie Lackawanna diesel engines in the black paint scheme; as opposed to the standard gray and maroon colors.
Reading and Northern 425
Strasburg 90
(both with proper coaches)
Chestnut Ridge Mack Railbus
rtr set with a smurfs theme
Cool. It would go nicely with the MTH Traxx lettered for SBB Cargo. You might get MTH to build this one - but Lionel, never.
I would like to see Legacy equipped LIRR engines. Something outside of the orange/gray paint scheme.

An American Flyer Pennsylvania T-1 4-4-4-4 duplex.
A Mckeen motor car and trailer in scale O, tinplate O, and standard gauge
A 45-50 ton center cab diesel switcher with siderods
A TMCC controlled engineer or fireman figure that waves from the cabwindow
A tender with steam booster trucks with siderods
Eric Hofberg
TCA, LCCA
The previously cataloged but not produced "scale" NW-2....undecorated no less!
Rick.
I would like to see more AEC items. But that is very doubtful for awhile given the previous run they ended selling at blow out prices. At least RMT has and will come through for me. 
Command enabled uncoupled and operating fast rack sections.

A Mckeen motor car and trailer in scale O, tinplate O, and standard gauge

The center cab diesel switcher with side rods would get my money. The waving engineer or fireman would be a neat idea.
But my favorite would be the Mckeen motor car and trailer--- this has to be made by either MTH or Lionel.
This would be cool:
Jerry
I know I'm beating a dead horse, but I have to say it, LIONMASTER STEAM w/Legacy.
