Let's cool our jets for a minute here, folks. First up: MTH hasn't made a "Y3" since 88/89, when MTH was just beginning to make O gauge products to compete with Lionel. It was a hybrid of the Y3 and Y6b, so comparing it against the Lionel/Flyer Y3 of this past year or the O gauge model of a few years ago isn't valid.
MTH hasn't made a Y3 since then. They did do a more accurate Premire Y6b in O, but what year escapes me right now. Second, the most recent Y6b out of MTH has been a Railking Imperial model, which is slightly undersized, but better detailed than the normal Railking line for O, to attact the "Traditional" O folks. Plus, seeing that MTH has yet to put out an S scale catalog let alone product, everything else is just rumor and speculation. Depending on what the next Lionel/Flyer catalog looks like, MTH may have a LOT of ground to make up.
