Many roads used the Pacifics. I suppose there were as delivered variations, but I would also think that those variations would not necessarily require a re-tool, just some add-ons. But I am not an authority on the subject.
Wonder if the 3rd Rail/Sunset folks read this list?

Perhaps the rationale for Sunset's thinking about the SP Pacific is not only that they are located in California but that they probably already have most of the prototype information for one from having done it in O scale (could even be several times over the years--I haven't paid much attention since I wasn't interested, I do own a Sunset SP 2-8-0, which is pretty good for a basic model, and one of the SP 2-6-0's from the PRC).

Checking their website they still have a few available now.

If the "S" scale modelers support this project others would follow.
