Title: What happend to the H16-44?
Post by: austrian on March 14, 2015, 04:14:00 PM
It is some time since the H16-44 has been available.
What about bringing it back into the range? As a sound value loco?
While I would buy at least two if available in Santa Fe, I like the look of this loco I could even buy one if not in Santa Fe.....

It would not be feasible to bring it back as a sound value locomotive because of its split frame design and other factors. They would need to do a considerable redesign which makes it an unlikely candidate in the immediate future to be available as a sound value locomotive. It could happen five years down the road.

Dear Thomas,
We are looking onto many re-issues now, and we'll keep you posted.
Thanks!

Curious will it be brought back as a Spectrum series or just standard line with mold on details?
