Not being able to sleep at 3:00am this morning on the West Coast, I read an 
article about diesel locos that got me to thinking about our scale. Everything 
that I've read states that the EMD SD40-2 was the most popular and possibly the 
best designed diesel to date. If this is true, I'm curious as to why the loco 
has never been made by one of our three major S scale manufacturers. I know 
that Overland made a brass model, but a less expensive plastic model has not 
been offered as far as I can tell. I would think that this diesel would satisfy 
most of the early(?) diesel lovers as well as the more "modern" s gaugers. As 
far as anyone knows, has there been any discussion in the past about producing 
this diesel? Would there be a market for such an apparent popular diesel? Your 
thoughts( when  you wake up)?
