Product Spotlight: 700E Scale Hudson

Last year Lionel introduced the VISION Line, the most highly detailed and technically advanced locomotives and rolling stock ever made. This year, we're taking these revolutionary advances and putting them in our most beloved, popular, and iconic pieces.

This Product Spotlight features the VISION 700E #5344. This product utilizes much of the original tooling that built the legendary 700E, but now includes new detailing and state-of-the-art VISION features. Some of the features to take note are:

Swinging bell synchronized to bell sounds

VISION Whistle Steam effects

Best sound features ever offered in a Hudson – TruRail Dialog, TruRail Laboring, and TruRail Chuff

Upgraded lighting features – directional lighting, operating headlight, illuminated classification lights on front, enhanced realistic lighting on the cab interior

Best detailing – opening boiler front with authentic interior detail, opening roof vent, separately applied details including grab irons, piping and valves

LEGACY control

Upgraded high torque motor give this Hudson the finest control at even the lowest speeds
