However, some people thought that they had a good idea of what the announcement was about. Back then, Lionel Racing used to have a diecast Santa Claus to hand out gifts. Few people even began to plan out their gift list for Santa Claus. All in all, the announcement has everyone hyped, and the fact that Lionel Racing has played coy only builds the hype.

For the moment, everyone will have to wait for December 5th, when their curiosity will be, hopefully, sated. Until then, the guessing games will probably continue. All that Lionel Racing has to do is to maintain their silence until the time comes. Or they could play hot and cold with the guesses and rile up the fans even more.
