N&W caboose project Spring Mills Depot status

I wish the companies that produce HO-scale Y6b models would consider
offering the Y6a, since there would be a lot of parts/drive mechanism that
could be common to both. 
While the Y6b was the zenith of steam, a Y6a still exists (2156). Seems like
little effort would be expended to offer a model of an existing engine, much
as was done for 611 and 1218.

Anybody got any guesses why no model manufacturer hasn't offered a
reasonably accurate, plastic, steam-era N&W caboose in the past 50 years?

Seems like they would only sell about a 1000 of them in the first year.

I can't even remember how many SMD cabs I reserved. But it was/is a lot.
