I too have been baffled why SHS hasen't made the PS-1.  Lots of roads had them! 
 The 'mighty' NYC Pacemaker was a most colorful specimen and ran them behind 
Mohawk's, RS-3's, as well as GP-7's.......whole trains full of them.  Sorry to 
do this to you Don, but hint, hint, hint!  :-)

For the few of us who feel "close enough is 'not' good enough", a bunch 
of brown - red oxide - freight car red - mineral brown - etc., box cars 
of the PS-1 variety would be most welcome!! I'm talking scale, R-T-R, 
SHS quality and detail. Not trying to throw cold water on anyone's 
projects for new rolling stock, but it has always baffled me that these 
widely built cars have very little representation in S scale. Of 
course S scale has no moderately priced R-T-R Geep 7's or SD40-2's 
either, couple of other prototype "biggies"... go figure!

BTW, if you peruse Railway Prototype Cyclopedia #5, you'll find a good 
number of those 40 (and 50) foot PS-1's came in some very striking and 
decidedly non-brown schemes. Something for everyone!

Time to get back to the workbench...
