If you could only buy two new O gauge steam locomotives what would they be?

I can't wait for the arrival of the Pere Marquette 1225.

J. Daddy, since you live in Michigan (like me) have you seen the REAL 1225 in action??  We saw her last weekend in Alma.  One word : awesome.

Going back to the topic, I wonder how many scale engines Lionel released in the late '90s to present will be re-released with Legacy.  Could a K4 and others be on the horizon??  I wouldn't mind a K4, but think my train budget is going to be empty for a while after 1225....

Yes I did! she was in the roundhouse in Owasso, was threatening in taking the excursion but have not. She is a beaut. Looks like Lionel did a fine job on this one. I here you on the money issue. Just saved enough coin to buy the TMCC starter set and some O-72 track (will still hear it from the better half), will do the rest of the layout in gargraves but I needed a half circle to start my template. Cannot wait to get home tonight and get those NYC E-7's a roaring!

When the men get together its always done right! J. Daddy
