The TSN GP40's are pretty darn good.... I don't know if I could go backward there.
There are definitely a bunch of BLW sets for the FRC.
Since I already have the TSN/SLI sets, I'm thinking of springing for their Cali Zephyr with the RDC's.If you like what you see here at Trainsim.com, be it the discussions and knowledge in the forums, items saved in our library or the ongoing development of our TSRE Fork, I hope you'll consider a paid membership to help support keeping the site operating.... Thanks!

Leasing as we know it didn't really start until after WP was absorbed into the UP.
My recollection... there were two world events that kicked off leasing. The initial "big event" was the 1979 energy crisis and the other event was the Staggers Act passing in 1980, which freed railroads from seeking government permission to abandon and downsize their networks.
Railroads who were facing bankruptcy that had 10-15 year operating leases (sale-leaseback) locomotives bought in the late 60's and early 70's started to return locomotives to the banks and owners (financing companies like GATX and Helm as well as GE and EMD) in large numbers. That created the initial short-term leaser fleets.
