One loco I've been waiting for has recently been announced by Intermountain, they are releasing an MEC U18B in HO. YAY! The other I'd like to see is an HO GP40-2W modeled after those used by the MBTA in the Boston area.
Updated Proto 2K HO B&M GP18's and BL2's with DCC ready or DCC equiped mechanisms would be great too!

Although my dream unit would be a SD45X. I like Athearn due to the fact that the detail and workability of the new line of locomotives are better then anything else that I have worked with.

Are they still made? If so, I would still have to renumber it.

For N scale:
1) Mother Hubbard.
2) Any of the more unusual logging locomotives.
3) A more affordable 0-6-6-0. ;^)
4) Any Garrets.
OK, could easily make this a very long list, so will stop with these. -Rob
I would like to see Kato start making more locos in HO scale. I love their quality and detail but I hate the limited supply. Now that being said I would like to see a re-release of the SD40-2 NS colors would be best. I would also like to see an updated GP35 or other Gp series loco with the plug in board and possably sound ready like the SD38-2 that Kato has out now.
Just my $.02

Sounds good to me. What more could you want?

I would like an Em-1. It should be high quality die-cast. If PCM could make one in the same quality as the Big Boy and the same feel I would be ecstatic. It should be HO and it should be DCC sound. The price should be somewhere between 600-800$. That would make me buy it at once. Even to put a deposit in a year ahead.

I would take almost anything if it was nice PRR in HO. I actually love kits so give me more options. We only have Bowser right now, I would like a hybrid of several manufacturers First I would take a Bowser boiler, less cab. Make a great looking plastic cab to put on it. Make a cast underframe of the tender with a plastic shell to put your sound into(BLI). I would want can motor and nice gearbox like from NWSL. Also sprung drivers and brake shoes! I know I have alot to ask but I would love to see more kits. I am not one for the instant gratification of today!

N Scale with traction tires:
Yellowstone in die cast or plastic (the brass DMIR is very nice but at $1000.00 out of most peoples reach) in SP or DMIR. Oh by the way about 100 ore cars to go with it!
N&W class Y6, geared for low speed running
N&W class A, geared for fast freight
Any Cab forward, because they are cool!
Good running and pulling examples of these locomotives have not been offered in Nscale for years. LL offered an outstanding running and looking Y3, but the pulling power was not there. I would be looking to buy pairs (at least) of any of these models if they could pull a decent load.

Texas Zepher,
What I am looking for are the items you can only get in Brass for the PRR. Like a Q1, Q2, N1s, S1, S2, K5, 0-8-0 switcher.

well, some canadian-style diesels would be nice. especially the one-of-a-kind RSD-17 for CP Rail, although i doubt thats coming out. i would like some 44H44A1 side-rod locomotives and maybe an SW1200RS or the upgraded version by CP Rail. i have also had my eyes on some FP7/9A units. some affordable DRS-4-4-1000 units and RS-23's too. All of these have to be around 100 dollars or less and in the CP Rail scheme or the script style. the main thing is that it must run good and be as detailed as a P2K or P1K diesel.
darn my high standards

Aggro--
Isn't that a brass UP M-6 over at Bruces, for about the same price you'd probably end up paying if BLI or Proto came out with one? Cute lil' ol' thang, I think!

I would like to see a rerelease of the Atlas B&M GP7, but not only in the blue paint, this time in the Maroon/Gold scheme.
More SD80MAC's, and would somebody please make a affordable SD70M-2!!!!!! It would be sweet if BLI announced a Blueline '80MAC, and a Sd70M-2.
