$oo:

Thanks for reminding me. It's been so long that I forgot that I ordered it!

I am looking forward to this one especially since it is Legacy. So far all my Legacy locos have fantastic sounds and low speed performance.

I don't think you will regret this when it arrives.


Regards,

Joe

Still waiting for my first Legacy engine...GS-4. Is it still scheduled for May delivery? This year? I hope so...-dischler

dischler, so far no change on ship date still shows to ship may-08. this is the only Legacy engine for me and its like waiting as a kid for Christmas day to arrive. feels like mervens add on tv get here get here. haven't seen the upgrade chip for legacy either and some have theres already. in another thread talk of an antenna at best buy that enhances signal strength hope we get more info on how it well it works with obstickles etc in its way. $oo

I really doubt that. At the Legacy users group meeting at York, they indicated that beta testing was on-going and the earliest you could expect an updated module would be the end of the month. Because of FCC regulations and their testing procedures you most likely would not see a different antenna from Lionel for at least many months; however, I personally will get the hawkins antenna from Best Buy tomorrow.

Isnt the GS-4 engine one of the ones that might be tied up due to the MTH-KB lawsuit?

well back to square one be surprised if we see it by late august. per mike reagan at lionel possibly july more likely august. the bright side is no money put down on a pre order so if something else comes along the gs-4 can wait.
