Why do they wait so long to post it. They could do it the next day.

Lionel did a real good job of putting that transcript up quickly.

After reading the transcript, I'm not sure I could have had the patience necessary to answer the same questions 3 to 4 times. (I didn't get to participate due to a previously scheduled city planning commission meeting.) I am looking forward to seeing what they are doing with TMCC. The question was raised about other companies copying Lionel's products of several years ago, and the use of TMCC not as intended. I think the fireworks are really going to escalate in the next five years.

It is interesting to see that Lionel has finally awoke to the fact that they need to get out and about and talk to their customers at York and other venues. Not being a York participant, it never occured to me that Lionel did not exhibit. I have never seen a manufacturer's exhibit at an Ohio show. I think this says something positive about the change in management at Lionel.

Yeah I thought the transcript was good reading and a good conversation. Jerry Calabrese is doing a good service to the company by taking the time to do something like this. There are obvious reasons why the company people (not just from Lionel) don't take the time to personally respond to comments made on the train forums. The controlled setting of the Q and A chat seems to me to be an outstanding idea to commnicate with folks and answer questions.

Seems to me this time around, many more questions got answered covering a variety of topics.
