Hey everyone! Just for fun, what is an engine that you’d like to see a manufacturer like Lionel or MTH make? It could be something new or an item that hasn’t been made in quite a while.

 For me, I’d love for Lionel to make some Scale Legacy versions of the Norfolk & Western’s early A Class locomotives. They were different than what the 1218 looks like now in that they had boiler tube pilots, smaller 22A tenders, and some even had Laird crossheads as shown with the 1200 and 1208 below. Is this something anyone else would be interested in?

Late fifties experimental light weight train power;  FM Speed Merchants, both New Haven and Boston & Maine versions and the talgo sets to go with them. Likewise those Train-X Baldwin-Maybach diesel-hydraulics in the NYC blue & yellow or NH McGinnis scheme is way past due too.

(Kudo's to MTH for their GM Aerotrain!)

A Brass/Hybrid Scale Hudson, 700e, similar to The VisionLine Hudson with the Swinging bell, back draft smoking feature, Whistle Steam authentic Whistle, and fire box glow with cover, Black and a beautiful scale tender.  This is my favorite style Hudson.  I think there would be plenty of demand if they applied lots of add on details.  Happy Railroading
