Dream on - “All things come to those who wait.”

Wow, I can see you like passenger trains. [:)] I’d like to see an accurate, easy to build, or RTR model of an NKP bay window caboose. There hasn’t been one yet. It would also be nice get some really accurate PFE and ART reefers at a price the average modeler could afford.

More HO scale figures with hard hats! We need them for coal miners and refinery workers, among others. My packing plant could use a few people with those white helmets and coats. The best I’ve seen is Woodland Scenics “smoke jumpers,” which need a bit of custom painting.

I’ve got Preiser’s sets of people going up and down stairs, and another group of folks sitting on the stairs, but people hanging on to box car sides or climbing ladders aren’t available, either.

Wouldn’t you think coal miners would be more popular than 1:87 llamas or camels, which you can find? Do you have llamas on your layout? (Pics welcome, of course.)

The EMD SDP40F - Flat nosed version in:

  1. Amtrak “Pointless Arrow” w/ red nose scheme.

Oh, wat, that’s not what you meant. I’dd like to see Rapido do a wider variety of cars, and in the American Orient Express.

And for Walthers to do a heavyweight SP Daylight to boost the car count in the Spectrums

A trackmobile (yeah yeah, I know I’m wierd)

I want a veranda, and I know it was made, but I couldn’t afford it. SO let’s see 'er again. And while we’re at it, the rest of the UP turbines, sans the M-1000.

A BL-2 that’s got a sound/DCC decoder already in her.

A Decoder and Sound for the Proto BL-2 with instructions on how to DCC it.

My wish is for things to not go out of production.

More and more it seems like if you see something interesting, you have to buy it right then. Wait and it it’ll be gone. never to be found again.

Except for the Atlas railroad station. That kit’ll be around forever!

Let’s see…

Union Pacific 9000 class 4-12-2- Emailed BLI, they have plans for it!

Southern Pacific GS-4 class- I know bachmann makes them, but I want PCM to make their’s!

Harriman 2-8-0s, 2-8-2s, 4-6-2s, 4-4-2s, and others

Accurate UP dome diners i.e. the City of Los Angeles car.

All HO scale.

As with every time this comes up:

More Alco’s Any and all that haven’t been made yet. Love them smoking devils.
