I've been extremely intrigued with Lionel's attempt to do 21" passenger cars. However, I'm not convinced they will do the Southern cars accurately or worth while to buy them....below is my review of the cars for other modelers who may care about accuracy. Click the image to read the text and see pictorial comparisons to what Lionel is producing vs. the prototype.
Update - September 2025: When Lionel did finally release these cars years ago, they ended up putting Southern lettering on NYC Empire State Express cars. A hard pass for me, which thankfully let me to a long anticipated wait for the 1950's Crescent, imported by Golden Gate Depot.
