For me it is a fantasy scheme, specifically the futuristic steam train from the Back to the Future movies, one of my favorite movie series. How cool would this be! Every once in a while, I think about building it. I have a 3D printer, so it is feasible. I am crazy but not sure I am crazy enough to take this on. Attachments:

That would be a really cool engine, Adam. I’m kind of surprised that neither Lionel nor MTH has made it but maybe there are licensing issues since it’s from a movie. I would love to see a Brightline train made in N scale. If I somehow got space for a medium sized O gauge layout I would like to see it in O. There are a number of Florida East Coast locomotives in both O and N but no Brightline.

Lionel Legacy US Army missile launching motorized unit, with a can motor instead of a Pullmor jackrabbit! Some hope - but I've never agitated with them about this and they'd probably turn a deaf ear anyway. This is the TMCC version I am sure everybody already knows although you need the sound-equipped command control boxcar to get the full operating features:

An O scale Union Pacific auxiliary power car. N and HO scale versions of the car have been produced. For those who model Union Pacific passenger consists, whether they are a Union Pacific Officer's train, or the President George Bush funeral train, that specific car would add a lot of realism to these trains.

Very unique. What can you tell us about it? From what little I could find, it pushed ore cars and was used with the Hulett crane at the great lakes. On the second video it shows the Atlas Shunter and how it operates at 13:18
