I just got an email from LGB telling me all about some uncataloged items that are going to be available. So here are some pictures with just a little information. Sorry that is all there is for now. It is like that with breaking news sometimes. You can watch here at LSOL.com and at the LGB site for more information as it becomes available.
I asked LGB how they come up with the ideas for these un-cataloged items.
"Locos like the new Bumblebee Mogul are the result of requests from LGB fans," said Tony Castellano, Chief Operating Officer of LGB of America. "We spend a lot of time listening to what consumers tell us they want, and we're working hard with Nürnberg to turn those requests quickly into reality."
With surveys, meetings and the popular "Idea Box" at lgb.com, LGB of America and the people at Lehmann in Germany have been engaged in an extensive "listening" effort over the past few years. The results are beginning to show in the form of uncataloged, new items announced all through the year.
So it looks like the more you talk to them the more opportunity there is to get what you want. See the next few pages for some pictures and info.
