In 2026, JasLines created the IDR, or Iron Duke Replica. This locomotive was first made with wrong proportions and an awful first design. It was made in the first month of the year, but in may, they redesigned it after it failed most of the tests. The redesign also was meant to make it look way more accurate. During this, one of the workers called it the 'Blue Iron Duke', eventually everyone just called it 'Blue Iron', in reference to the original name and it's current color. After the redesign, the IDR performed way better, it actually was a little more powerful than the B12, however it didn't have the speed. As going from 0 - 60 took 6 minutes. Overall, the redesign seemed less rushed than the first attempt, and made it ultimately a way more profitable locomotive, despite losing about 2 million for the original.
