Hello everyone.
It has been a long time since I have done one of these posts, so I figured why not start one on something that I don't think I have seen anyone talk about just yet.
What locomotives out there that have not been preserved that you would like to see new builds of someday in the future?
There are lots of locomotives out there that have not been preserved or given the chance to be preserved or were going to be preserved but ended up being scrapped by mistake.
With the PRR T1 locomotive trust building a new T1, it's likely possible that it's only a matter of time that other organizations will form as well to build more extinct locomotives that have not been preserved.
And since there are so many choices out there for engines that deserve to be remade, rebuilt and resurrected, I have decided to make a list of the top 10 locomotives that I think should be resurrected.
I am choosing one wheel arrangement per railroad to stop the list from being redundant. These choices are basically my opinions. I hope you will understand.

This was inspired from my lineup that I have basically done on my deviantart account many years ago and I wanted to ask people here what locomotives do they want to see be built someday in the future.
My deviantart account username is the same as the one here.
What do you guys want to see be built in the future?
Let me hear your thoughts and opinions in the comments.
See you next time.
