How about a ‘Sharknose’, they had AAR type B trucks, would these be the same as on the current GP by Lionel, if so that cuts out new tooling costs.
Problem is they only had three operators from new but then they do fit in nicely era wise with other Flyer diesels.

Original Shark owners were EJ&E (very briefly owned 4, I think they were sold to the B&O), B&O, NYC, and PRR. Monongahela bought a small fleet from NYC, and the last 2 of those went to the D&H. The D&H units are now tucked out of view in Michigan. Add in the demonstrator paint scheme and that's quite a few ways to decorate a shark (and Pennsy and NYC went through several different schemes as well).

FYI: EJ&E bought the demos.

I'm not gonna hold my breath for Sharks.
