Lionel
enhanced its sales efforts by placing their catalogs on the internet
starting in 2003. They take great pains and pride to properly introduce
their forthcoming products. I think you would agree with me that their
catalogs are visually stimulating and first class. To view their
catalog on-line, go to www.lionel.com.
However, nothing is perfect, and there are errors and/or production
changes that occur to change their catalog. It is the intend of this
page to share with you this information. The below information is from
Lionel, and is still subject to change...
