Actually yes I did.....When I was typing....
Must say tho, those are some interesting conversions for the GG-1! I'm surprised they didn't do a 4-8-8-4 version in those to be honest....A super GG-2!

Some more PRR ideas, from Raymond Loewy himself.
I really like the propeller commuter car. Hmm, I see another Tyco kitbash in my future. Did Tyco ever make a propeller though?

No, Tyco never made anything with a prop. I say use one from a plastic airplane kit.

The Pennsy should have built the steam version pictured. That would have been one nice looking streamlined locomotive!

Those are some very interesting concepts.

The Germans made a real prop-driven train in the Hitler? era, the Zeppelin. Marklin has a copy of it in HO, I want one, but they're expensive as all get-out. You can buy a new one now for $300 or so. One of my club members has one, it's a real attention-getter at train shows, because it really "flys".
