Hi,I'm surprised there aren't more USRA Mikados, heavy and light.  I got the Athearn one when it first came out and it died on me.  The BLIs seem to be coming back, but they look a bit toylike in the pictures.  Bachmann is so good at producing great looking engines, with (now) great touches like working front couplers and working backup lights that I think their Mikados would be big sellers.More generally I wish there were more SMALL steamers around.  Maybe a variety of 2-8-0's.  More logging engines (I think my Bachmann Shay is my favorite engine ever) would be great.  I've always pined for a Forney, for some reason, though I don't know if there were such things in standard gauge.
