Did any manufacturers make any Alco c636s or M636s? Thanks again!!!!!!

No but Atlas O did do the C628 and C630. May be able to kitbash a C636 from the C630. However the Hi-Ad trucks as used on D-L C636 3642 have not been made in O far as I'm aware. Also be aware the M630/M636 use a Canadian version of the three axle truck - it's not same as the Alco design Trimount or Hi-Ad truck.

I did some quick research on the DL locomotive roster and saw that the DL had one C-626 and two M-626's.

Wrong - Alco never produced a C626 while MLW never did a M626. You meant the C636 and M636, right? There is a difference of 1,000 horsepower there as 36 indicates 3,600 hp while 26 (if actually produced) would have been 2,600 hp. Also, D-L only has one M636 - the 3000 is a M630 which is 3,000 hp.

BTW D-L picked up another M630 recently from GECX which is this one:  

And here's a D-L roster for Mason:  https://www.thedieselshop.us/Del-Lack.HTML

Thanks! Did anyone make a locomotive like DL 2045 yet?
