So far I have one Raritan River SW. Looking for one of those M&E C424's. Or BR&W 1202. Looked high and low at the York show.

If anyone could help me, that would be great. Or even direct me to a hobby shop that might have these locos.
I saw a Raritan River boxcar (#100) at Allentown and I hesitated and it was gone. I already have one but I wanted a back up. I haven't see any of the locomotives for sale recently. I have 4 of SWs and one of the M&E C424s but you wouldn't want want any of mine anyway even if they were for sale because they are 2 rail.
I'm sure you know that Atlas is coming out with SW numbers 4 and 5. I would love to add them to my collection but I have too much stuff on pre-order. I also assume that you know Beth Marshall came out with a M&E boxcar. I just got mine a few days ago. Sorry I can't be of much help. Just keep looking and when you see something pounce on it because they don't come up for sale very often.

Actually, MTH made that M&E caboose in two road numbers. 2010 and 1901 I believe. I actually cancelled my order on SW #4 when I found #1 on ebay. I also know where one Black River 1202 diesel is. But I actually found it while trying to help my friend find it. So now I can't back down on that promise. I'm basically looking for anything M&E or BR&W.
I was not aware that MTH made any M&E equipment. Just curious but what is the MTH part number? What catalog was it in? I don't know how I missed it.
The only thing that fits your category that I have from MTH is Railking RRRR boxcar. It's slightly undersized but a nice car. I have a M&E caboose but it was definitely produced by Atlas.
Atlas also did a M&E RS-1.
Yes I've been looking for that as well.
I used to have that one too but I sold it because it was TMCC. I probably should have kept but too late now.

Not sure you are still looking for an Atlas M&E RS-1, but if you are there is a 2 rail version over on the bay. Not affiliated with the auction in anyway, just ran across it this morning while looking for something else and remembered this thread.

Welp, there's the M&E RS1 from atlas,
Theres a MTH SD9 Highood from MTH,
Theres a BR&W RS1 with TMCC made by Atlas,
and there's another M&E engine from atlas which is the Alco C, however you'd have to find on that is converted to 3 Rail as most where manufactured for 2 Rail.

Atlas made two scheme in the BRW RS1.
3rd rail also made a BRW SD9
Sean Marchev of the now closed Doherty’s trains did a special run of two numbers m&e mth 40 foot boxcars. He is a forum member. Might be worth an email to see if he has any laying aroud
Heres the Sunset Models BR&W SD9 - I have one and she's a beauty. Head and shoulders above the MTH Railking one.
Trains N things in Ewing should still have 1 for sale

Also check with Beth Marshall of The Public Delivery Track. I got two of the M&E boxcars from her a couple of years ago.
