Yes, and I also wonder how many of the original reservations would still be valid, given the time elapsed. At this point a new tally might have to be created, and it could be the case that the responses are even less than before.
That said, I was not part of the original SD40-2 call, but likely would be interested now. I guess I'm an outlier. However, as I stated above I would be much more interested in a detail accurate GP40-2, due to my preference of 4 axle diesels.
It seems everyone owns a Big Boy nowadays, and I'm really glad folks have the space to run large equipment! But, for me an SD40-2 would primarily be a static display piece, given the curve radius to make it look right.
