The Lionel N&W 612 and Lackawanna 1501. The Lackawanna 1501 was the first new die cast steamer tooling commissioned since the post war era and was one of the first new locomotives of the LTI. It was actually based on the Rock Island 5100 class which was produced first, was redecoed as the Lackawanna 1501 a couple of years later and was finally issued as a grey Northern Pacific engine. The tooling hasn't been used since.
