          Hi Chris,

          While I don’t do diesels very often - when I do - they need to look like this - dirty - gritty - railroading... This is about as modern as I will go...



          Fallen flags all the way - and wait - what now - that’s a Chessie on your website - now THAT’s something I would be interested in - all in - we seriously don’t need yet another modern route set in the desert...

          Tell me more about that Chessie image - please...


          Regards,
          Scott

            Definitely more classic stuff! Things like Dash-7s and U-Boats built to modern standards are hard to come by, not to mention Alcos and some of the bit players early on

                Definitely classic, I think there is a need for up to date models of the following:
                GE 44 tonner, 70 ton and others of that vintage.
                Fairbanks Morse - switchers and road switchers
                Baldwin
                Alco - any of the models that BLWZT hasn't made
                U-Boats

                  If there aren't roof walks nor cabooses, then it is not railroading!

                    On the modern thingy, remember there are only 5 major US carriers and 2 Canadian ones and after this PSR stuff they all roster the same 4 diesel models. So it gets easier and easier to satisfy those fans.

                      Older classics, even up to the 1990s, would be great. I start to loose interest after the early 2000s.

                        Consider the ten year period from 1968:
                        - before Penn-Central
                        - before Amtrak
                        - before Burlington Northern
                        - and many others;

                        to 1978:
                        - after Conrail
                        - after Chessie
                        - after Amfleet
                        - etc.

                        A fascinating decade, and mostly overlooked.

                          Fallen flags and Regional and short lines up to 2000's.But in the end it is what Jason wants to release and not what his followers want. I hope by the polls he will listen to his followers . Im still waiting for a Rock Island set and a modern CNW set with the C44-9W's.

                            I like the idea of lease, shorlines, and regionals in 4 & 6 axle.
                            Flog me if you like, I can take it, but I enjoy modern day railroading. That said, any new stuff should be something not previously released in multiple iterations.

                              While I certainly enjoy the older classics, I'm still more of a contemporary guy. I'm likely to purchase either era, if it's within my interests, but I'd prefer Class 1's with modern equipment for me! I think there's still plenty that can be modeled.
