(Sorry. Couldn't help myself).
I will share details of what and when as soon as I can.
(I had this response all ready to go. And I hope everyone understands that I'm not intentionally teasing you with information. The Park is considering a number of options and the final selections of products and designs isn't final. They don't want to disappoint anyone because something that was being considered early on didn't make the final cut. But they are hopeful what they do offer will please fans of the DLRR and WDWRR. This is why they asked me to let you all know that they've heard your requests for more railroad-related items and that a major program is in the works.)
I know Michael. I was just facetiously pre-empting what is usually an actual request for more information from someone who fails to read the full thread.
We're all patiently (if anxiously) awaiting your announcement!

Can you tell us a little about how something like this comes about? It seems that often, train merch is released in huge deluges, with nothing but pins available between major outbursts. I am specifically recalling the 2002 onslaught of Marsh merch--pins, mugs, prints, models, jackets.
Obviously, I'm not complaining--I'm just curious why when it comes to Disney trains, "when it rains, it pours?" Do merchandisers see pent-up demand and respond accordingly? Why don't we see more of a steady release of cool train stuff?

How utterly cool would a DRR lantern be? Especially if its an Adlake?

Thanks for the teaser CP173. I'll anxiously wait for the final announcement.
Do they do any surveys of Disney railfans before they release merchandise? After all, we're going to be the ones spending our hard earned cash on these items.
...just wondering based on their questionable DRR pins in the past.
"Hello folks. Welcome aboard the Disneyland Railroad."
I don't believe Michael was involved with any of those questionable pin releases...
