Trying to find a man who made 3d emd Fl9

When shapeways still in service, I found 3d emd fl9. It has both early and late variants.
Maybe he make some military stuffs and streamlined sncf steam(sncf 231 726).
Since shapeways is gone, I'm trying to contact with him-but I cannot find his Fl9.
I only found streamlined sncf locomotive at French forum.
Do you remember who was he?

If you are just looking for bodyshells, did you check with Rapido?

Well, Rapido's fl9 is too scarce, and also trying to find his SNCF locomotive, too.

The assembled locomotives are scarce. They may have body shells however.

Tried to find shells, but nothing.
Since its bankruptcy, we lost lots of n scale shells, like New Haven EP5, Virginian el2b, Little Joe, NYC hudson, Baldwin babyface and more...

Pretty sure Rapido still has FL9 body shells, but you have to contact them directly. Also check the Bachmann parts website for J3a Hudson body shells. The others never have been mass-produced so you could check the other 3D marketplace websites. Shapeways wasn’t the only one.

I can confirm the Little Joe is still available - not sure about the EL2B though.   :D

Mike - you know there’s always a solution to that el2b

Thought secretly hoping to get an EP5 at some point in time as the maker of the FL9 also made congressional coaches and the New Haven had run though service

Edit - to the mods - is there a place we can put requests and finds like this thread? I’m sure there’s some shapeways products that have gone missing - people can ask and if they happen to pop up people can post links or info on how to get those 3d products?

Maybe a "sticky" in the "3D Printing" section?
