List which locomotives, rollingstock, etc., that is your favourite and wi***o be produced, but HAS NOT BEEN MADE YET in plastic or die-cast metal. If it's been made in brass, you can list it, because its way out of most peoples ranges.

We can send this list off to manufactuerers as a list of what they should make next.

For me, it would be CPR's "streamstyled" Hudsons, Selkirks, Jubilees, as well as non-"streamstyled" versions of the Hudson and Selkirk.
Rolling-stock wise, it would have to be sleeper-lounge-dome-observation "Park" cars of CP's, CPR lightweight curved sided passenger cars.

Right on teddy! You took the words right out of my mouth. I'm a Canadian too and would love to see these models made. I also would like to see CNR U4 streamlined Northern.

Incidentally, your wish for a CPR Hudson that's not brass may actually happen. Are you familliar with the President's Coice HO sets sold each year made by Mehano? A friend of mine does correspond with the President or CEO or whatever of PC and the guy is thinking of having a Hudson for the next upcomming set (I'm not sure whether CP or CN), but my friend wants him to have it with a CNR 4-6-0. Despite what my friend thinks, I'm hoping for a CPR Hudson (maybe even the Royal Hudson).
