Good Evening All,

      If the 45 tonner you speak is the one with side rods on the wheels,  then they were released last year.   Now my apologies if is due to be re-released.   We just sold one at Lin's Junction in the past two weeks.

Here's one http://cgi.ebay.com/HO-Bachmann-GE45-GE45-TON-SWITCHER-w-DCC-Unlettered_W0QQitemZ360135023138QQcmdZViewItemQQptZModel_RR_Trains?hash=item53d9b85a22
And Stephen is right that the Favorite Spot does have them, I checked a few days ago and they had them. The listing in their store or the auctions must have ended.
Here's one that ended on Dec 3rd: http://cgi.ebay.com/SPECTRUM-HO-DCC-GE45-SWITCHER-BETHLEHEM-TRAIN-85205_W0QQitemZ350286082101QQcmdZViewItemQQptZModel_RR_Trains?hash=item518ead7035
Also see this link, it shows you how stupid people are on ebay bidding an amount higher than the buy it now price on the sellers store... http://completed.shop.ebay.com/i.html?_nkw=ge45&_in_kw=1&_ex_kw=&_sacat=220&_okw=ge45&_oexkw=&LH_Complete=1&_udlo=&_udhi=&LH_IncludeSIF=1&_samilow=&_samihi=&_sadis=200&_fpos=Zip+code&_fsct=&LH_SALE_CURRENCY=0&_sop=2&_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_rdc=1

If you mean the HO scale one with DCC I got mine last January at the "Springfield" show. They are excellent. It only pulls a few cars but it's very smooth.
