Anyone help me with the update of the DW Rock Island locomotive set ,DW does not reply to a polite request.

Is this what you're after Peter? http://www.dieselswest.com/Repairs2.htm

Following my old bookmark brings up a 2019 DW site and on the left hand pane there's a link to "Support" .....but it only has a few patches. The "Log-In" has a link to "Register" but this demands a CODE and gives you no opportunity to actually enter any details.

Thank you,Geoff,but he had a complete update of the whole RI set,but both have disappeared.I have seen the above link.

Sadly I was always interested in the RI set but thought the lack of a top quality route made it "one for later". The Penn Central set had more interest but then he went "postal" and blocked existing customers like me from his site.

I would like to see more old school content .Fallen flags,GE U-Boats, Alcos Baldwins etc. How about Open Rails only version of the ATSF Superfleet especially the FP45s. The only updated widecabs I would like to see are the Conrail SD80MACS and the notch nosed SD70aces.

My wish list is as follows:
1. Dirty, heavily weathered diesels
2. 4-axle diesels, preferably dirty
3. Dirty, heavily weathered diesels
4. Black Penn-Central diesels, dirty and grimy
5. Dirty, heavily weathered diesels

I would really also like to see a new updated model of the CP red Barns

[wwhall]

^Totally agree. New Red Barns would be great.

[MMSS]

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

I have to agree with Gerry here too. Newly done GE 44 & 70 Tonners would be sweet to have.

Fairbanks Morse - Would nice to have Trainmasters & "Baby" Trainmasters thrown into the mix of OR detailed models.

Baldwin - I been always surprised that there was never a real nice S-12 switcher made for MSTS over the years being that it was a very popular switcher. Would be nice to see the unique "Babyface" Baldwins for the CNJ & GM&O routes) & a good Double Ender. Maybe a S-8s & some AS16's thrown in.

U-boats DW have the niche on but would be nice to see some of the other models & roads that haven't been done yet.

For me personally in EMD I love to see the NYSW GP18 Low Nose trio of units (1800, 1802 & 1804) & PSRL GP38's with "Duel Cabs".

Yes and of course some up to date Sharknose models. It's not that there are NO Baldwins... rather that they were modeled in the early days at standards that the Sim and PC's could actually run.

Well that should read HAD as far as most of us are concerned. The refusal to sell his models to most of us, or even allow us to register on his site means that to all intents and purpose these models no longer exist.

We need someone else to take up the replacement of these models. They were excellent. I bought a couple of packs but that's of little use to folk who can't buy them.

Well seems I am late to this party but since I had my hand operated on I can work a bit easier. I think Most are in agreement we need diffrent things. Fallen flags would be welcome but I think we need to reach out farther than the standard ones.

How about MKT MoPac, C&O, WM, DH, RI, DTI, or BLE. Or just make a Iron ore train set since we have none of those?

Uboats are sorely needed, so are SD38 SD35 DD35 Orginal SD40 not the rebuilds. B&O style SD40 with the hand brake on the rear platform.
Switchers Sw1 Sw2 Sw9 Sw1200 Sw1500
44 ton switchers?

New 4 and 5 bay covered hoppers? Older 3 bay covered hoppers with round hatches along the top?
40 foot Hi cube boxcars?
Dot 105 Tanker cars?
How about a actual beer tank car?
PC Pennsy style gondola cars

We have so much for the west coast Yet I would like new set of SP Locomotives Like the ATSF super set with more details.

We need both versions of the F45 for passanger and freight since GN ATSF Amtrak and Milw Rd used these, and as Berg said the red barns need rework.

Some B units would be nice to have as well.

Maybe some blank templates for repainters would be really welcomed.

[Timbit]

Well I will add to the wish list . lol
CP 8000 & 8100's rebuilt from the 9500-9600's AC4400CW
CP 7000's SD70ACu
The CP units that were done up in the Army and Navy
CN new Gevo power . 2900,3000,3100,3200,3800
CN 8100-8103
The CP TEC trains would be really nice

Also Rent a wreck units would be a great add on .

KCS power

That's all I can think of for now .

Hi, about new work:

a super commented route that is about to leave.
Original LOCOMOTIVE of the region for ROUTE to be even more perfect.

ABOUT THE C30-7 SUPER SEVEN TIP, IS THIS LOCOMOTIVE POSSIBLE TO BE FAILLY APPLIED?

[jasonjedi1]

Im simple.
Updated tunnel motors. In the gyralight and ditch light versions. That and maybe a Tier 4 ACe.
