A 2-10-2 Santa Fe type. Besides Santa Fe, Illinois Central, Reading, Erie, Union, and others rostered this wheel arrangement.
As far as diesels go...Whitcomb 45 tonners, GE 70 tonners, and GE U-23C and U25C types.
How about these from NJT

Would really like one of these, but don't think it's going to happen:
A 2-10-10-10-10-10-2. The same man that designed the Erie triplexes designed one, but it was never built.
ex-Guilford Rail Syst (as of March 2006).
my guess is that nobody will pay the licensing fee for the logo.
would certainly be a conversation piece.
cheers...gary

You would think that railroads might like to see their road name on model trains for PR and advertising purposes, instead of wanting licensing fees. I understand Union Pacific is bad about this in recent years.

Not any longer. That whole "UP licensing mess" was dropped when CEO Dick Davidson retired and the late James Young became CEO, some years ago. All the major railroads require a "licensing fee", usually between $5 and $15, plus they will insure that you receive the CORRECT logo you desire. No big deal any more.

UP licensing fees (there are none) with model railroad companies was settled years ago. In 2006 if I remember correctly.

Here are my PAN AM's...MTH fast foward to middle of video.
How about the E60 and rebuilt E60MA? Williams did a toy version of it but I doubt we'll ever see a scale model of one unless Sunset Models picked it up.
While only Amtrak ordered them and subsequently sold a few to NJ transit, I have seen fantasy schemes of these in New Haven and Virginian and they look really sharp.

The Santa Fe "Madame Queen" is a 2-10-4.
I thought Sunset/3rd Rail offered models of the Southern Pacific 2-10-2s, as well as the B&O "Big Six" 2-10-2s.
How about Frisco 1522?

huh... my error, thanks for showing them.
i haven't looked at a new catalog in over a decade.
re: UP... i believe their basic policy is that they want to approve the model and not just have anyone slap the UP logo on any piece of junk. Following Aster's development of the UP Challenger some years ago, it was mentioned but turned out to be a non-issue.
cheers...gary
T&P/AFT/SRR 610, a 2-10-4
Here's another one, while we've seen A1a B&A Bekshire I would love to have A1c super berk with correct tender.
Milwaukee Road's Baldwin/Westinghouse Electric. Don

I'm a little late to the party, but someone mentioned CF7s back on page one. A fellow club member did this!

That's a good one, not even sure that would require brass...
MILWAUKEE SDL39s

(Thread title)....in my lifetime:
....and they're NOT E6's that have already been done by the orange and purple guys.
These are more iconic...the one on the left even celebrated as a USPS stamp, the one on the right being given reprieve in all it's 1:1 glory at a museum.
Ah, well, some dreams are destined to be just-and-only that in a single lifetime.

You're probably the only one.
Even IRM turned one down, although hindsight it would've been good for parts...

Forney on the street & elevated lines before Electric. Then they got sent off to industrial settings.
I would buy at least 1 of these. If the price is right, 2
