The only new locomotives that might attract me to purchase several of would be E6s (my first choice with both A and B units) or E7s. I was pretty excited when SHS announced the E7 project. I understand why Don deferred, but I sure would have liked to have seen them. We probably need to see a big change in the economy if we hope to see these. The economy was pretty awful in the early 1990s and by the late 1990s it was booming. So lets pray for another economic miracle for the growth of S and a whole lot of other reasons. - Earl Henry, Nashville In a message dated 7/29/2011 2:09:15 P.M.

Earl, I would also love to see some E6s I would probably but 4 myself.

Since George mentioned me as one of the Southern fans who might be interested in a high nose version. I will chime in. I do have some interest in either a high-nose GP or SD (preferable) that could be decorated in Southern's black tuxedo scheme which is almost completely missing in S scale. We have quite a few green locos, steam and diesel, in S but nothing black that rings a bell with me in the black tuxedo scheme. Still I cannot be counted on as a definite buyer because a lot depends on the timing of availability and whatelse might be attracting my dollar bills. Being a passenger fan, I would much rather be able to purchase an E6s (top pick) or E7s which would work with Southern, L&N, or IC. - Earl Henry, Nashville In a message dated 7/29/2011 11:06:53 A.M.

However if there is enough demand from us Southern and N&W types he would consider a hi-nose add on. Don, hope you read this, and Earl and Larry in W.TN. Curious, anyone in S model the N&W in the 60's or later? I'm hoping their are some Wabash and Nickel Plate and P&WV modelers or freelance people out there who would want a Hi-Nose. Hope I've got this right, Jim, as I'm typing off memory.
