To be honest to make the polar Express if you're using gold numbering on the locomotive already for pere Marquette #1225 the only difference would be on the tender, instead of pere Marquette it would say "Polar Express" then you'd just have to make the polar Express passenger cars. It would be cool though to have for the Christmas season. Plus this year is the movie's 20th anniversary

The version I got was on FS.Com which also contains a lot of PC only mods. Unfortunately they don't have the latest version at least not yet however it worked there. And to be honest if this WAS on the modhub it would work there too. Not sure why I can't get it from here without issues though it's a bit weird.
If you're looking for models to add i would check out stuff from the Trainz Railroad simulator series. I'm pretty sure some of those models could be adapted to Farm Sim. I happen to know about quite a few models that would be suitable including ones you've been looking for Trainz Forge is a good website too look on for up #4014 and #844. They also have a couple of geared locomotives like a climax and shay. And under diesels Ive seen good F units.
I can definitely help you out with sounds. I have a ton of steam locomotive sounds if you want me to share them, as for animation work id study animations and videos of the locomotives you're trying to model and possibly start off with something smaller like a switcher. Also for all your engines it might not hurt to find a way to state the minimum curve requirement in the store page, different locomotives need wider or tighter curves. And it would help people with designing their track layouts. Another engine i can think of that id absolutely love to see is N&W #611. #611 is my favorite steam locomotive and id be over the moon to have it in Farm sim. If you're looking for models I'd recommend turning to content made for Trainz. I've played games in that series for a long time and I've come to find tons of nice models.
Honestly this mod really is a game changer I've been building train lines on maps like no man's land and the western wilds for the past few days. Several thoughts have come into my mind for additions. I know you're planning to add a Berkshire at some point, but I'm wondering about geared locomotives for logging. A two truck or three truck shay could be useful on logging maps like silverrun forest. Also if the issue you're facing with steam locomotives is sounds seeing how we haven't had steam locomotive sounds in farm sim before honestly i think i cam help because i have access to tons of sounds. Whistles bells chuffing sounds i can get it all
