Does anyone know if a C40-8M was ever made in O scale? I'm almost certain it wasn't made in 3-rail, but maybe 2-rail? Any pics would be appreciated. I've attached some pics of the real ones:

Maybe high end brass two rail but never by MTH or Lionel. It would great if a C40-8M were made in three rail with attention to detail. Engineer Joe on this forum was interested in the C40-8M too. Canadian stuff is hard to find lately.

Overland may have made one. They did an HO scale version and they have a lot of other CN stuff.
Here are a couple BC Rail units that roll through my home town on the CN line occasionally. These were featured on a recent Trains and Locomotives episode and #4616, the second pic, was in the video. I though that was kinda cool. There was one in a stopped train about a month ago just off the road and it was like the one time in a million I didn't have my phone with me. Always on the lookout for them. Can't help on a model.

Darn it! BC Rail #4020 just passed by right in front of me and I didn't have my phone/camera again. I had a feeling I was going to see one too.
