GP60M perhaps? That's the only 4-axle wide cab geep that I know of. [:)]

He speaks of the GP40s with F45 cabs. Really cool units. Saw one in D.C. once.

First off we are still waiting for the real next release the SD70ACe units. That is what I would like to see next forget all the wants and wises. We know what is next and it is a very hot model coming this year. Lets wait till those units arrive to await a new announcement. The most sought after modern engine is surely the SD70ACe. Soon enough alot of us will own some of these. The price will not be too high since no other engines look like these units or are evn similar.

Sorry Guys,I can't get excited about Tower55..After we have several proved manufacturers that makes quality models,Atlas,Athearn,Kato,Stewart and other like companies..IMHO we have enough manufacturers to produce the models we need with out the manufacturers tripping over their selves producing the same models..Of course we need more F7s...[}:)]

Well Brakie,
I was just wondering if you got your nasty email from Mr. Marsh yet?
I got one from him a while back ago telling me not to slam his company.

I would love to see turbines. OMI has done a magnificent job in the past with their Union Pacific Turbines. Now maybe high-quality models will be produced at an affordable price. I would also love to see Tower55 come out with an FEF-3 844 and other UP Steam favorites. I might be speaking just for myself, or for a whole lot of people; there is just something special about Union Pacific motive power of all eras. Seeing more challengers and big boys might seem somewhat redundant but I will never get tired of them. As long as someone keeps coming out with better-detailed models I will keep buying them and I’m sure others will too. OMI has been a major producer of high quality, true-to-prototype Union Pacific models ever since Tom Marsh started the company. I'm sure the new Tower 55 line will keep us die-hard Union Pacific fans happy.

Be different, small and (we hope) inexpensive... Davenports, Whitcombes....

[folkestonekeith]

Agree that New Haven and Pennsylvannia Electrics or even the Great Northern, Milwaukee and Chicago South Shore electrics would be great.

.... and for something exotic the Union Pacific Coal Turbine #80 -it will keep my OMI Steam and Gas Turbines company.......

[Anonymous]

How about a model of the U50, U50C or the UP coal turbine #80(8080)?

[matthew redden]

Hello,
I would like to see New Haven Electrics EF-3, EP-4, EP-3 and Pennsylvania Electrics P-5a and E-44's in HO Scale. There are plenty of other manufacturers doing diesels so how about some electrics.

Regards Matthew Redden

I doubt MTH will file any injunctions or anything like that. It was just a jab at them. After all the trouble that money grubbing bastage caused he deserves it! There was some talk of MTH making HO stuff and I for one will not touch it if they do.

4-12-2 and a 4-10-2 with 3 cylinder sound in HO! That would be just tooooo cool ! Although I don't think they will be able to. $$Mike$ Train Hou$e$$ makes one and they probably have a copyright or patten on it.

Cenntinial!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! UP

[Anonymous]

My choice would be CR SD40-2's, SD50's, SD60I's.

[Anonymous]

i think Steam Exursion Locomotives

SSW 819
Frisco 1522 i hope.

[bikerraypa]

How 'bout an SD-38AC?

[UPJohn]

I think they should release an SD40-2 model. So i voted for other

[Anonymous]

My vote would be a Genesis or F40PH along with the Zepher cars to attach.

[Anonymous]

A high quality SD40-2 (BNSF) and an SD40T-2 (DRGW & SP, including speed version) without sound would be awesome. Athearn and Kato models are sub-par and not offered anyway. Be the first on the block! Thanks for listening.
