Did anyone ever make a Chicago "METRA" F40 PH engine in "G" Gauge? Is there anyone who could decorate one if I find a F40PH?

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

It is being considered right now for production by USA trains.
There was a model by Great Trains a few years back, that pops up now and then. It's modestly detailed. It has NWSL trucks that are very good.
There is also just a shell available now, printed in 3D by Mark Dash.
Few things to consider is the Great Trains F40 was made up in Crystal Lake, IL. back in the late 80's early 90's. That model was made in 1:32 scale but isn't totally accurate. The owner Ralph Brown compressed the length of the locomotive by eliminating one section. If you look one fan is missing on the roof. Only one was made to the "scale" length.
The body isn't an injection mold..it was formed out of styrene pieces.
The NWSL trucks used were terrible as most all had aluminum wheels.
No interior and the lighting used was very crude.
The USA Trains recently announced F40PH will be an exquisite model made to 1:29 scale 
There is a outfit that makes 1:32 bi-level commuter car kits out of styrene.
