    Atlas announced a GP-20, with DCC and sound. Is this the return of the Lifelike line, with small updates?

    I can feel the rumbling already! This is fantastic news. I need to go search and see what this is all about, if they are producing it in Burlington with a proper red I am in! If they announce GP 18s and maybe some steamers I might literally pass away.

    Please please another run of the 0-8-0s. I need at least 2, 1 in C&O and 1 in NYC.

    Maybe some updated ALCo FA's and C424/425's? Hope they come in SP&S.

    LOVE my GP20s !!! I'm sure they're kinda' testing the waters here, but I'm in for BN and a pair of AT&SF. I'm sure more roads will follow. And knowing Atlas, maybe...maybe...MAYBE... a High-nose version !!! :):):)

    The LL GP20 was an absolute beauty! Glad to see it making a comeback.

    Fingers crossed for some FA1s and FA2s in the future.

    Hi Nose GP20's are a must do for Atlas. The Western Pacific and Great Northern had them and would probably sell very well.

    Yes, I'd like to see Atlas release an updated LL FA in Western Maryland paint.

    I wish Atlas / LL would do more steam. As high quality as Atlas' diesels are... mmm!

    Good lordy you're a genius! And moreso if we could get a variety of modular types! Especially if they were dual-track and designed to be rearranged like T-trak etc.... I wonder if there's really a market for affordable modular ready layouts? Woodland scenics has their kits, but... it just ain't the same. And yes, I know those Japan-style modular RTR/kits sell like hotcakes!
