Reply to "Sunset 3rd Rail GP9/GP7"

Scott needs to do SW and NW switchers, GP 7/9s, GP20s, GP30s, GP40-2s, and GP15s. In my humble opinion he needs to do smaller engines for a while. I've been waiting for Atlas to bring the Erie Lack Geeps out for what 4 or 5 years now? I wish Scott would use ESU decoders like Atlas, but that can be fixed. He has made steady progress model after model to improve his diesels. Take my beloved GP30. Yes, it has been done by Lionel and MTH in 3 rail with floating pilots. The only version with fixed pilots was the Overland brass model and maybe one other older brass model. I had two of those and they weren't particularly good runners AND the interiors weren't as detailed as what Scott is doing in plastic. If Scott did a GP30 it would instantly become the best O scale GP30 ever made. I think he could do the same for the GP7/9. With the small amount that he needs to get a production run going why not dangle the idea and see how many people bite?
