Sure hope it's not the GE demonstrator turbine GE 101 (a.k.a. UP 50).
Then I'd need an NKP dynamometer car...

I'm sorry Dave, I'm afraid I can't do that.

Thinking SD45 or SD-40-2, but wouldn't be unhappy with an AC unit followed by some combo of numbers after.

I wouldn't kick about an SD45, not in the least. I have something like 8 Katos in some stage of modification on or near the layout. But they have "old tooling" disease like the Atlas GP30s - great runners, but model proportions are not quite right. Hood width errors are a big problem with SD45s; they lose the prototype's iconic "big shoulders ready to do serious work" look.

I'm guessing it'll be either Tunnel Motors or AC4400CWs because either would be extremely painful to this N Southern Pacific modeller.

Scale Trains doesn't come across as steam people but maybe one day they'll prove mem wrong hopefully.  I did ask about the UP coal burning turbine. They did reply within a day stating the plans could not be found. Hummmm, I've seen them in O and HO brass.   How about the Jawn Henry in N.

I'm planning to be on the Chattanooga train ride at the NSC Convention in Nashville where they say they'll make the announcement and may have some of whatever available for sale.
Guess I'd better stock my wallet in case they have some things I want.

Given the previous releases, I'm going to say its a AC44C6M.  2nd guess would be the GP30/slug program they just rolled out in HO

An AC44C6M would be great....

So you all will get a turbine that moos?

There is always the completely under-served market for N scale AT&SF steam locomotives.
