Doug Peck said that the big steam engine in the stand-alone Flyonel catalog
coming out in March was a 2-8-8-2 Mallet, various roadnames. $1,000 list.

If Ron is alluding to or has outright said Lionel is coming out with a Y3 I
have mixed feelings about it. The Y6b is my favorite non-PRR loco that I do
not have. It has stuck with me since my HO days with the Riverossi unit. I
have been campaigning for it with River Raisin for about 5 years+ now and
would likely be my last major brass purchase.
 
If Lionel comes out with a Y it will be about ½ to ¾ the price of the full
brass loco & not as detailed. Such decisionsŠ But we will now need a tom of
peaked end N&W hoppers to go behind it.
 
Yes the Y3 was sold to the PRR and was gone well before my era of interest.
The  PRR was apparently not a fan of articulated locos as they were gone by
the early 40s (I think) The regular popular classes run in great numbers
until the end of steam.
 
Thank You,
