What passenger cars would you like to see made?

Forgive me if this is a re-post..The last one went off into the bit-bucket: In HO, I'd like to see the MU commuter cars that ran on the Morristown-Boonton NJ line. I remember making the trip, a long time ago, to Denville and still have memories of the smell of the pantograph-powered coaches, the feel of the rattan seats and the dull ugly flat green paint. I think Walters had something, back in the early 70's, but I never picked any up.

I would like to see a manufacturer produce passenger cars for the 1937 Great Northern Empire Builder in HO scale. I model the time period 1930 to 1940 and would like to see more heavyweight cars in plastic kits from that time period especially those that represent the recently introduced (for then) air conditioning.

I'm modelling the NYC in N scale and I would really like to see a complete set of NYC heavyweights. I would realy be happy if they were equipped with Micro-Trains couplers and had interior details and lighting. Is that asking for too much?

In N & HO scales, smooth sided, fluted and heavyweight kitchen and dormitory cars, you can't completed the consist without the staff/crew quarters.

Local commuter cars circa 1950-1960 would also be great.

I would like to see passenger cars either decorated for the Chicago & Eastern Illinous Railroad, or some that would be mostly correct for them that i can paint myself. on that note, we need someone to make C&EI passenger car decals since Champ doesnt anymore.

second, I would love to have some Amtrak California and Amtrak Surfliner cars. the brass ones sold real well, why cant we get them in plastic??

and one more...we need the El Capitan Hi Level cars done in ready to run plastic. both in Santa Fe and Amtrak paint. and i would especially like a model of a Pacific Parlour car that was built using old El Cap lounge cars.

I am an HO Rio Grande modeler who would like to see available in plastic first, a combine like the Grande's 1230 and 1231. Second, on my wish list, is a dome lunchette, like the Grande's Silver Shop. With these two cars, I could have a very effective Rio Grande Zephyr.

Although it's not what many would call vintage passenger, I would really love to see a good quality version of the Auto Train done in plastic. The Bachman set was just too toy-like for my tastes. The Auto Train was (and still is) a very unique part of our passenger train history.

I'd like to see HO heavyweight cars based on common prototypes. What would be ideal would be an updated form of the old Walthers wood and tinplate cars. These could be re-done in plastic or plastic and brass with interchangeable roofs, sides, etc. Some of this is already available, but it's hard to find and there still isn't a comprehensive set of sides that I've seen advertised.

Bring back the "shorties", approx. 60-footers. I'm kicking myself for passing up some at swap meets.

N scale Santa Fe heavyweight coach. (The coach would also be a running start for kitbashing a Santa Fe lounge car. Or maybe the manufacturer could do the kitbash, since about 70 percent of the car details, window alignments etc of the coach would also fit the lounge.)

Any Sandy River & Rangely Lakes, Wiscasset Waterville & Farmington, Kennebec Central, or Bridgton &Saco River passenger cars, in HO, as AHM planned to do back in the 60's - the few available brass or resin kits are too expensive.
