So just as the topic states I wanted to make it know to a few of the dealers that I and hopefully a number of others would like to see a run of the UP BSA 2010 locomotive. I missed the first run and would love a second chance. No idea if licensing would be the hold up.

Yes!!! I would buy at least 1.
They could sell them thru the Boy Scouts as a fund raiser !
Yes
I’d be in too, but only if made die cast body, like the original. That would be a long shot for sure…but one can only hope for.

I remember it mentioned years ago that there won't be any more die-cast ES44ACs as they modified the tooling to handle plastic going forward, and it would require all-new tooling to go back to die-cast. Unfortunate, as those die-cast ES44s are incredible.
Yeah I highly doubt the diecast es44’s are coming back they were very cool and definitely had a different feel to them
I would buy the UP BSA ES44AC. It's an engine that I've been wanting to get for quite a while. I also have the Lionel BSA Eagle Scout semi-scale boxcar that they made for the BSA 100th Anniversary. I'm an Eagle Scout so I had to buy the boxcar.
I would buy the non-diecast version if a dealer wanted to jump on a custom run. Should be a home run. Only would require 40 pieces to order.
