Ok, we are up to 44 posts now. I feel I have to mention the K4 again.

Fairbanks Morse H10-44 or H12-44, pretty please with sugar on top  :D

Ditto

I really wish Kato would do an E7.

Again, ditto

...and let's not forget the North Coast Limited.

I'm there too

AS616

Ditto in multiples

My own additions...

URTX-type meat reefer
3D see-through replacement fan for F units
Athearn's Ford F850 and 62' tank car (I know it doesn't have a prototype but it's major kitbashing fodder)
More new body styles of late-50s, early 60s heavy trucks and trailers and personal vehicles (that's a separate list in itself)
Baldwin AS-416
RMC 2011 to the beginning of time on CD (and Mainline Modeler and better quality scans of RMJ, etc.)
MTL-quality riveted, end-brake wheel flat (straight and fishbelly)
Time to clear workbench of non-model projects and to get crackin'





Failing to prepare is preparing to fail.

More free time, and better production planning by my contractors.

Bryan............ stop believing in the tooth fairy...... "better production planning".......... oh man, I had to pick myself up after falling over laughing..... We're all in the same boat on that one !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  :D
Model railroading isn't saving my life, but it's providing me moments of joy not normally associated with my current situation..... Train are good!

I easily have a full year's worth of projects sitting on shelves collecting dust, not to mention needing to scenic my plywood prairie.  :facepalm:

Just to balance out all of the K4 requests, how about an updated NYC Hudson or any class of a Mohawk in plastic?

Seems to me that the DM&IR Yellowstone would be a nice way for Bachmann to get more mileage out of the EM-1 mechanism . . .  I've got to believe this one is really going to happen somewhere down the line.

I'd like some big Boston & Maine Steam. P2, P4, R1, T1. All of those. But realistically? How about a good Pacific?

I'd like to get the layout finished and wired to the point where we can start having full ops sessions again with the crew.

As to new models, I'd love to see Bachmann finally upgrade their 4-8-4 to be on par with their other recent steam releases and maybe do a Heavy 2-10-2 ....

As to my Railwire and other friends, may we all have a Happy and Healthy 2014!

- Start building the small switching layout I keep planning once the summer begins.
- Purchase an Atlas S2 whenever they're released
As for wish list:
- A high-hood NS GP50 from Atlas (I don't NEED one but I would still love to have at least a pair).
- I agree with the correct light package Espee SW1500, although I would be plating over some lights on my model to math LTEX 1543

My New Years wish is that Atlas would make the final phase of the FM H16-44 also known as the Baby Train Master.

A Baby Train Master would be cool, but that's not an H16-44.  Baby train Masters were H-16-66's which were owned predominantly by the CNW.  MILW also had a few.



A had a Sunset Limited brass model 20 years ago.  Out of everything I've ever gotten rid of  train-wise in 30 years, I wish I had kept that one.

Edit - I thought the brass model was a Baby Train Master, but Spookshow doesn't have it.  Maybe it was just a Train Master.
