"HONGZ" stands for HO scale, N scale, G scale, and Z scale.
Post your non-O scale stuff here!

Kato just released an excellent model in N. HO is a little harder to find. Athearn is working on one from what I understand in the Genesis series. You can also buy a shell from this company. www.kasloshops.com/products/hl-14
Not sure on F40Cs. That is a pretty rare variant for the cowl locomotives.
Good luck!
A F40C for Metra or Milwaukee body shell can be purchased on Shapeways...... One of my Project Bucket lists

Try Athern. They were touting an Amtrak SDP40F at Amhurst this past January!
Hmmm, I do not see an SDP40F listed anywhere on Athearn's website. I do see an SDP45 which is entirely different.
Athearn announced last year that they would be doing the planning on it. Of course we know from experience that this announcement may never turn into a real model, but we can hope?

Speaking of the rare beast, when are you going to post pictures of your kitbashed O scale versions? I'd like to copy your homework.

Uh Oh. Caught. I haven't done a thing to it since then. Coming up with additional K-line F40 shells for some of the details has been very slow to happen 
So I have moved on to other projects. Mostly P48ing stuff, which in and of itself has been a slow and tedious project.
