I'd like to see more CB&Q passenger units - specifically an EMC E5. BLI could do a superb job of modelling one of these if built to the same quality and standard as their other E-units, and there's never been an E5 in RTR plastic. 9001A is preserved at the Illinois RR Museum so there is a surviving example to measure before designing a model, which is always helpful. Given how willing model manufacturers seem to be to tool steamers that are road-specific, I'm amazed an E5 hasn't yet appeared - they could use the drivetrain, trucks and electrics from their existing Es to keep costs down.
