If Lionel can make a 2-8-8-2 run on AF track, so can MTH.  The reason large 
steamers are made is because they sell very well.  What's wrong with that?  
Lionel's 2-8-8-2 is very scale-like in appearance except for flanges and 
couplers.  I'd expect to see some interesting coversions to scale by someone 
who can make treads/flanges to replace what comes with the Lionel product.  
(Fred Rouse -- hint,hint -- call me if interested in this.)

Telling a Yahoo Group what steamer you want will have a neglible effect.  
Telling Lionel, MTH or both, might have some influence.  NOT telling MTH what 
PRR loco you want is a guaranteed way to lose out to the the NYC guys.  And 
that would be truly horrible!

No criticism, but lots of suggestions.
