Toss up between this and this. Lionel CNW/SP heritage units and Lionel NYC F7 ABA really like them both.
I am glad to have read this post, wondering what may be considered my "most rare" newer piece of motive power. With that, I have three mentioned and wish I had more information on this topic about them. This read has been most informative and I wish to thank all.

My first MTH STEAM ENGINE. FROM sometime in the early 1990'S. Still runs great and is run a lot.

Fairly rare. A-B-A set of Weaver BP-20's, in DGLE, all powered (what was thinking?)
Probably my Atlas GM&O F3's that I only know of one (or possibly) two other pairs. I acquired mine by first picking up the non-powered unit here on the Forum some 6 or 6 years ago and thus began my quest for a powered A unit. Long story - spoke with Bill at Atlas but he didn't know of any. I finally obtained a single Santa Fe powered unit and then looked for a cab in GM&O. After two years or so, Bill finally located on and sent it to me. I painted the Santa Fe chassis black and mounted the GM&O cab. Now we're in business!
Still haven't seen another set anywhere other than Mike M's here on the Forum.
Mine are on my other computer which I'll post later.

New? How about a Berk Jr C&O & Chessie Specials instead of the normal P.E.. ?
It's either that, the Coast Gaurd starter set, or a Virginan rectifier coal drag take your pick, but my steaks are rarer and any "rare" stock is much older., but still just as common really. ;-)
"The one that got away" was a "special thanks only" Lionel gift to a few longest term dealer/fans. A CP carbody set [ 6 total like it, is what I was told about it later...???]
