Here's a pic of the Lionel NYC F-7B from the new catalog. I ordered what I think is the same unit, but what showed up was in the lightening stripe scheme. I wanted it to put with some of my PRR units to represent early PC. It was not as advertised, so I returned it to the dealer. Turns out Lionel was using a pic of the wrong scheme in the catalog. My question is whether or not this is really a second issue in cigar band, or just another incorrect illustration of what was actually produced in the lightening stripe scheme.

I didn't check but I would say if the product catalog number in this 2008 vol, 2 catalaog is the same as the catalog numbers for this engine in previous catalogs , then its likely that it will be lightning stripes . The catalog number would change if the paint scheme did in my opinion.

That looks like an F7B painted during the cigar band era. |

Yes that's what it is and what was advertised in the catalog. But when I ordered one, what showed up was in the Lightening stripe scheme. Turns out Lionel changed the design, but never publicized it. So the question is, is what is advertised here a new run in the cigar band scheme, or is Lionel just trying to get rid of the old stock painted in lightening stipes? I guess I'll need to track down the stock numbers to figure this one out. Neal Schorr Modeling the Middle Division of the Pennsylvania Railroad |

My $$ will be on the Lightning Stripe.  Lionel needs the Cash. Foolish they would NOT advertise the change!  member: TCA |
