What’s the easiest way to add character to your layout? Adding trestles to your layout, brings your layout to a whole new level (pun intended). Bring that boring oval or circle up off the ground and design something that’s really impressive using Lionel’s FasTrack trestles. Use the graduated trestles to gradually increase the elevation of the track and use the elevated trestles to extend the length of the elevation. You’ll need both sets to create this effect and how many sets you use in your layout is up to you. Depending on how large of a layout you have, there are many variations you can come up with. These sets are especially nice for children because it gives them a hands on experience of building their layout.

Finally, all but one of the Nascar expansion packs have been released by Lionel. We’re still awaiting the arrival of the 11008 Earnhardt Jr. expansion pack and we’re also awaiting the second shipment of the Lionel 21446 Operating Showroom. This item is currently out of stock and we were only shipped a partial shipment. Please remember if you place your preorder after our deadline, there is always that chance your order may not be filled. We really go above and beyond when trying to fill your order, so this is a very rare occurrence for us. The Legacy system still shows a release date of August, we’ve got our fingers crossed that the Big Boy’s will be coming soon! The Big Boy is sold out at Lionel. Remember if you are looking for a particular model number and you’re wondering if it is available for preorder, please check our preorder website. If you can’t find the item you are looking for, feel free to email us.
We receive numerous requests daily asking about release dates of Lionel and MTH items. Sometimes it is difficult to answer, because estimated shipping dates do tend to change depending on the manufacturer’s schedule. We recommend to save the shipping schedule links for Lionel and MTH to your favorites list so that you can refer to them often. All you need is the model number to look up a shipping date.
