Bachmann is offering Siemens locomotives in HO.  As I understand it Siemens has a pretty steep licensing fee, so Bachmann would probably be the candidate.

And Bachmann is making a Siemens SC-44 in N scale (still in preorder status), so that’s two scales. It’s possible Bachmann will extend its efforts to its Williams line, but I have my doubts based on what little new locomotive tooling the company has produced in recent years.

Lionel has hinted a couple of times during the catalog shows that a newly tooled Amtrak locomotive is on the way and in the design phase. Considering the number of road names the ALC-42 can be made in (because of the many commuter railroads and Amtrak paint schemes), it seems likely, at least to me, that Lionel is working on it right now.
