An update... I talked to Athearn today, and they said that the SD70MAC was in consideration, but no decisions had been made as to the production of one. Their main point of argument was that because of the length of the SD70MAC, they would require new tooling for the model. I think they are worried that there is not enough of demand for the model, that they will not get back what they put into new tooling. Perhaps ALL of us, that want these beloved MACs should email Athearn and let them know. I did cover all bases though. In the event that Athearn does not produce one, I also contacted Kato and Atlas, as well as Rail Products to design and produce an SD70MAC model or shell and chassis. -Wolv33
