Model train manufacturers have been on a roll lately—between upgraded DCC sound decoders, new tooling, and limited-run rolling stock, there’s always something fresh to check out.
Have you spotted a brand-new locomotive, freight car, or accessory you can’t wait to add to your layout?
Maybe a long-awaited reissue or a surprise announcement caught your eye?
I have had my eye on that newly tooled SD70ACe that’s been making waves between the crisp detailing, factory-installed LEDs, and next gen sound decoder, it’s looking like a must have. I was honestly surprised at how far the sound fidelity and motor control have come.
Also, I caught wind of a reissue of a classic steel caboose in new road names, and that hit me right in the nostalgia. It’s great to see manufacturers listening to the community and bringing back favorites with modern upgrades.
What’s on your radar? Any announcements that made you instantly check your budget and shelf space?
