Lionel did an S Gauge Big Boy that is 4 foot too tall, 20 foot too short
and is the only model I have ever seen that will run down two side by side
tracks at the same. It was Lionel selling a 1000 of these things (started by K
Line)that prompted Sunset to even think about building anything in S Scale
again. I met with Scott about this and he was very excited about getting into S
again. I can understand his excitement. If this was that acceptable to the S
crowd than just about anything should sell. Once again, confusing the Scale
guys with the Flyer guys.
I warned him up front that these Big Boys were considered junk by the Boo
Rim buyers and he could count them out. Sadly Sunset is still sitting on their
SP Mogul that they did while Glaicer Park sold out their SP Mogul as soon as
they arrived. Sunset's is under $1000 and Glacier Park's is over $2000.
All of the TCA guys that drifted in here from the S Trains list should
remember the showing of the Lionel scale GE "U" boat in York and that was when,
a year ago or so.
