This looks like a nice idea. http://lionelllc.wordpress.com/2012/09/04/new-product-spotlight-accessory-bundles/

I saw that too
Nice Idea, I'm more impressed that they would try to SAVE you money in a bundel than charge more for the convience of buying all items together!
I'm also very impressed that In the latest issue of CTT I saw Lionel start to explore the idea of making some products in the USA again! Whoo Hoo! Something new Lionel I could be proud to own sounds good to me. I dont know how many younger guys like me care about this or not but it just seems wrong to run my late 1940s Postwar trains on Modern Chineese made Tube track. The old track is tough to get in good condition. Please Lionel start making the tube track in the USA again.
I don't think it is for me Doug. I like to mix and match on my own.

Not a bad idea. I'd buy one or two. Sadly, spell check is not grammar check. I think we're all guilty of it from time to time.
Doug, It is a good idea for marketing, but like Kev, I mix and match.
They have used this idea for set add-on's successfully so it might work for them. But as already mentioned most will just buy the things they want for their layout.
