what else do we need

I would really like to see affordable models of the Burlington Zephyrs in both N and HO.

I think I am the only one wishing for this but I would love it if some one (Atlas..please?) would make an E44. I've got enough of the Spectrum E33's. Now I just need the E44 and my life will be complete [:D].

A bit tongue-in-cheek here, but "need " isn't quite the same as " want ".
We really don't " need " any more locomotives.
Current-event-wise, many feel we " need " more electrical capacity and better distribution...but this is really a " want ".
The "need" is to conserve energy, not find ever-increasing ways to waste it.
Sorry...way off topic...time for my meds.

We could really use a top quality C40-8 and C40-8W. TTo the best of my knowledge, the 6 axle dash 8's are the have only been produced by Bachmann and the tooling and mechanism aren't up to today's standards. Hopefully Atlas will be able to use some of the tooling from their 4 axle dash 8's to produce the 6 axle versions.

OK all
First of all we do not need another Big Boy, F-7 etc, been done already!

An example of forward thinking the CF-7, never been done or the Penn T-1 (only in kit form). These are engines that have not been available before in a ready to run form (or just plain not available).

So how about some of the engines that have not been done {Virginian 2-10-10-2}, or poor copies {Kraus Mauffie Diesel/Hydraulic}, or just in brass {Erie 2-8-8-8-2}, or some thing foreign but could be Americanized {SAR 4-8-4+4-8-4 Beyer Garrets}. For that matter Canadian Steam (for those of you from the South Canada is in North America)


We are finally getting some FM units, so I am happy there, but sure would like to see some more unusal steam!

How about anything that's yet to be released for ALCO!

How 'bout a really realistic medium 2-8-0 with 57" drivers--- something like Baldwin or ALCo built for several roads from about 1909 to about 1915. (Similar to a WM H-6 or H-7 would be nice.) For looks, the Bachman 2-8-0 is a disappointment.[V]
