As far as I know, the last one done in O scale was in 2002 by Sunset/3rd Rail.  It's a long shot, but maybe if enough people show an interest, who knows?  MTH built some 4-8-4 Northerns in several road names a while back, so in theory tooling does exist.  It may not be an exact copy of the prototype but something might be better than nothing.  Maybe Scott Mann would do another run?  Are there any other hopefuls out there besides me?  Thanks for your thoughts/replies.SP&S 700 #1SP&S 700 #2

None of the MTH, or Lionel for that matter, 4-8-4 models even remotely match a Northern Pacific and/or SP&S 4-8-4.

Not for a $2000 model, in my opinion!

Not likely.
