I like to see lion chief 4-6-0 steamers.
How about a set of the original Metroliners in PRR,Penn Central and Amtrak liveries?
A scale legacy 2-8-0 that isn't harriman or pennsy specific would be great. I'm thinking something similar to the diecast Baldwin 2-8-0 that weaver had years ago. Unfortunately atlas got the tooling to that model so it'll probably never resurface
Legacy scale SP&S/NP E1 Northern. Haven't seen these made at all in O scale (did 3rd rail ever do them?)
AC4400CW
Chessie System GP30
PRR M1b
I also want Lionel to make SD75Ms and SD75Is. The SD75M would be a simple modification to the tooling on Lionel's SD70M/SD70MAC body shell with the bulge on the right side. The SD75I could use the SD80MAC/SD90MAC isolated cab.
SD75M Possible liveries:
-ATSF (Warbonnet)
-BNSF (Warbonnet, BNSF/ATSF Patched Warbonnet, H3 Swoosh)
-NS (They purchased 7 from NRE)
SD75I Possible Liveries:
-BNSF (Warbonnet, H3 Swoosh)
-Canadian National
-Ontario Northland
The SD70M, SD70I, SD75I, SD75M could mean making all new injection molds. It is unfortunate that the K-Line by Lionel SD70MAC/SD75M injection molds did not get to stay with the rest of the LIONEL molds when they were moved out of the Sanda Kan or Kader production line.
I might have to buy a Santa Fe SD75M and a CN SD75I if they actually made them.

I wish they would add one or two Plug-Doors on each side to their A.A.R. 50' double-door box car, then paint the box cars to represent ones built in the 1960's and 1970's by ACF, Pullman-Standard, and National Steel Car for railroad all over the USA and Canada.

The LIONEL F7 A-unit and F7 B-unit diesel-electric locomotives specifically painted for The SOO LINE in the 1950's maroon & yellow scheme and the 1960's red & white scheme.
These F7 models need to have sounds recorded from the existing, operational SOO LINE F7 A-Units.

As I just got the new Christmas 2020 blitzen es44, And they are absolutely great under the tree most fun locomotive I’ve gotten in along time with the Santa crew talk, I like the new Christmas light up track for under the tree but I need 48 or maybe 60 inch turns not 36
The Lionel TMCC Phantom (there were four versions) locomotives are so cool. The models look like something from an old sci-fi movie or TV show. They sound like it, too. Lionel should re-release all versions of the engines for their Lionchief Plus 2.0 line with TMCC control, new motors (2 of them), new sounds, and each loco should also include a 4-pack of matching passenger cars. I would get the Phantom III which is silver and black. Maybe the Phantoms could also be made with some new freight equipment 4-packs and add-on freight and/or passenger cars that match the engines, so operators could run either a freight or passenger train with their futuristic locomotive.
I'm hoping to see some 2-6-6-6 Allegheny class Legacy locomotives because I will probably be able to afford one for the first time ever (if I save my pennys and check under the couch) and they're among my favorite locomotives.
Otherwise, I'll look for those small Legacy/Lion Chief steamers.

I really like this idea! Perhaps the Phantom in various road names or colors.

The Greenville Steel Car Co. corrugated gondolas built for Chicago & North Western, Missouri Pacific Lines, and Southern Pacific Lines that are now all owned by the Union Pacific.
These corrugated gondolas have to be made in similar process to the way steel vegetable cans and aluminum sardine cans are produced.
Corrugated gondolas stamped and folded out of actual sheets of metal.

Maybe New Jersey Transit ALP-44 / AEM-7 or the newer ALP-46. Some NJT double-decker passenger cars would be nice too!

I would like to continue collecting stuff, from when I was a kid. 6464 boxcars, and Aquarium cars. I'm sure Lionel could come up with a few new ones.

I agree, I would like to see traditional sized 6464 style boxcars besides those with Disney and Star Trek characters. Those kinds of cars have their place but I would like to see other cars too.
