The name LIONEL will ALWAYS be around... you wont see Chevy or Ford die either... Just like you wont see Lionel.

Lionel now is a far cry from the Old used to be Lionel.

Lionel has filed for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy protection because of the $40 million lawsuit brought against them by MTH. This doesn't particularly mean that they are going to go out of business, especially if they appeal the verdict and get it reduced.

I heard roumers about Lionel trains going bankrupt, is this true? Are they being bought out? Or going under, never to make trains again?

Its a sad day if it true.... [:(]
