They're moving manufacturing back to the USA:
April Fools Day seemed like as good a day as any to bring this back to life
...only if MTH moves back to the states first (don't want to be too far from your R&D)...
Frank53 - love how you isolated the different lighted windows. Really shows up on your night pic.

Don't worry Chuck, I have a ton of tubular in my basement that I will sell at highly inflated prices. One of the advantages of living in Ohio is having a basement where I can corner the tubular track market.

You can never have enough tubular track
Frank 53, that went over pretty good as there is a sence of humor here unlike another forum who freaked about a similar post And that is a nice factory by the way.

Must be a relatively narrow basement as it doesn't take too much width to "corner" tubular track
Very nice work on the Lionel factory, Frank! What a beautiful massive building! Somebody at the window manufacturers (Grandt Line?) must love it when you place an order. I noticed the Lionel Legacy R&D guy in the last picture.....I think he's about ready to JUMP! Posted at 4 am? After a job well done I think you deserve some sleep....now go back to bed.

LOL Frank,
Are you sure it's an R&D guy.......or is it a customer who pre-ordered? Could be a Corvair owner too!
Frank, that factory looks so good, I bet MTH tries to copy it. Just kidding. You have done some fantastic work on your scratch builts.

Surprised the Yanks didn't try to claim it was ME.
