Eric, thank you for being a guest on the Podcast. We had a fantastic time and we look forward to doing future episodes with you. Everyone, please enjoy it and let us know what you think. -Matt R

This was excellent Eric; thanks for all your effort in producing this visual to accompany an amazing podcast!

This was Great! I felt like I was hanging out with buds talking trains!

Well once again another home run . Great move putting the visual of the Catalog with the Pod Cast . Appreciate all your work and what you bring to the hobby . Lots of great new stuff in there . Gonna find this Pod Cast ( never heard of it ) but will become a regular listener now .

Solid Catalog, and great review! Thanks! My only comment, I think they need to rethink the whole it’s too small to fit a smoke unit… As others have pointed out HO scale Locomotives have smoke units… We should certainly be able to get 2 smoke units in our “small” O scale locomotives.

Thanks for joining us and posting this Eric!

Grab some popcorn and your favorite beverage, this is a long one. Enjoy!

How Fun.......I loved watching your videos over the last Decade

Great review of the catalog!

This was fun & interesting. Can't wait to see what makes your final cut!

Aberdeen Carolina and Western is my local railroad. Located in Aberdeen NC next to Southern Pines.

If the smaller engines are doing better I’d guess Lionmaster for the historical popular bigger engines would be a home run. But it has to be Legacy as well like the Challenger from 2015 which I love. I would have bought the Lionmaster Big Boy a few years ago but no Legacy. What about a Lionmaster Legacy Berkshire. I would buy anything like this but I just can’t justify adding and adding with a smaller layout, but the classic locomotives with all the features I would definitely purchase.

When I first was aware of the Hell Gate Bridge controller from Lionel I was really surprised. Lionel Trains were always a cool toy train. I was introduced to the HO scale trains in the mid 1950’s. But I always wanted a Lionel train set for Christmas. Santa brought me an HO scale New Haven Diesel set when I was 6 years old in 1959. Mom said be happy with what you’ve received from Santa. I never cried about it again, it was a lesson learned. I’m the youngest of 7, one older Brother never stopped with the trains. We were talking about the Polar express set. I mentioned I did like the DC motors because they could crawl. Brother John said the Polar Express locomotives do and can crawl , he went on to explain all the changes made with the Lionel trains. Not only did I buy the Polar Express set, I sent two sets to my grandsons for Christmas of 2020. I am a native New Yorker. The rails that cross the Hell Gate bridge touch 3 boroughs of NYC, The Bronx, Manhattan, and Queens. We use to water ski through the Hell Gate waters in 1970 and 71. We had a blast. I have purchased about ten LionChief and LionChief Plus 2.0. The first 2.0 was The 2-8-4 Berkshire in 2020. I am very pleased with all the 2.0 steam locomotives and 2.0 RS-3 Diesels. Still waiting for the New York Central Hudson 4-6-4. The Pennsylvania 4-6-2 Baby Pacific 5400 is beautiful, it had an issue, so I sent it to Lionel in North Carolina. Nothing is perfect, I’ve learned to enjoy what I have received from purchases I’ve made, all were new, none were used. Thank you for your Pod Casts.

I would love to see Lionel start offering some of their rolling stock as 2-rail models

Hi Eric I know you're a BIG LIONEL fan and just bought the PENNSYLVANIA FLYER O scale complete set for $100

I had to look for myself. There really was an Aberdeen Carolina & Western livery. I like it.

I’m excited about that 8408 SW1.

I'm most excited for the cn units to come out I just have really liked them a lot since they came out in 2020 (I guess that's one of the good things to come out of that terrible year).

Can’t wait for the class a

RS-27 Soo Line #416 and both of the Soo Line 6-car ore sets on pre-order!!!!!

Since you got a SOO LINE GP30 diesel, does that mean that a SOO LINE RS-27 or SOO LINE F7 AA set or B-unit will be appearing to accompany it?

Awsum video 🚂😎👍❤️❤️❤️❤️

20:25 finally after so long 🥲

The Budweiser train could use a horse car for the Clydesdales.

For a vision line engine, you would think there would be at least two low level points for steam effects. Not what you would expect from a $2100.00 dollar retail engine. Very disappointed Lionel.

You could hook up the 992 legacy command base to a MTH TIU to run both manufacturers so how will the base3 work when you run both

Makes you think… Why didn’t Lionel use a 4 digit address to begin with? Thanks for offering this podcast Eric.

So do you purchase all these item from the Lionel website or do you have another place you purchase from

Can you run two powered locomotives connected together on a layout? Or does the second locomotive need to be non powered? I appreciate the help

Now I wish I didn't get the 990 last year.

Eric, did you get any snow your way yet?

You guys need to do this again Edit: Can you list johnny's channel? (If he has one)

Very nice, and still waaaaay too expensive for families

I wish I had more funding to buy these locomotives and sets. I wish lionel would do a layaway or some type of payment plan. Its wishful thinking.

So disappointed to see the Southern Atlantic in green, with the red roof that never existed. If it was made in real colors I would have scooped it up. Couldn’t they offer both colors?

Vision line what if passenger Train locomotive

I think Lionel should have add dcc to there engines

Looks like a MTH catalog.

Um, real trains do not have 3 rails. Jus sayin.................................

FIRST (after the pinned comment so Second)

Way overpriced.
