I have not seen a SD45 from the Railworks team. I don't see it anywhere in the store even when using the search function. I went to buy the SD70ACe and the DDA40X packs..... and both disappeared from the store once 2013 released. I can get the SD70ACe in the SD70 Vol. 2 pack, but they included only one.....and only in BNSF livery. The SD70ACe pack includes more than one, including IMO the best looking scheme of the heritage units..... the Denver & Rio Grande unit. Railworks emailed me back saying they will be back in the store when they are ready. i don't know if they are getting some kind of 2013 improvements or what when they say "when they are ready". Anyways, a must buy for me.
As for my wishlist of engines I wish they would make are in my sig...... the DD35/DD35A, SD45-2/SD45T-2 and the very rare SD45X (my avatar). The SD45X was the most powerful single 645 engine unit ever made at 4200HP. Saw one parked with other prime movers on a side track being stored during a time of low traffic in the Roseville yard in July of 1980. I feel fortunate to have also witnessed both DDA40X and DD35/DD35A's in action on Cajon Pass in the mid-1970's. I also wouldn't mind a SD80ACe as well. I'd even take the SD80MAC if they weren't gonna make the ACe version.
I kinda wouldn't mind a SD90MAC, but I'm not a big fan of 4-stroke engines. But if I was to have one, an EMD 4-stroke would be my preference.
