Lionel Collegiate Boxcars
Posted by Anonymous on Monday, December 18, 2006 8:57 PM

Does anyone happen to know what other colleges are going to be included in Lionels new Collegiate lineup?  The first 5 are Penn State, Michigan, Illinois, Alabama, and Oklahoma.  I am a Penn State grad, and would like to run a ceiling track around the "Penn State Basement".  It would be a rather nice touch if Lionel put out boxcars for all 11 Big Ten schools.  Just curious.

Since Ohio State has licensed MTH and they have already produced a  train, billboard and water tower,  I doubt that Lionel will be allowed to make an OSU labeled product.  If you thought the UP was being tough with their trademarks,  OSU has a battery of lawyers who will take you on at the drop of a scarlet and gray hat.
