Reply to "Alco RS-3-- come on 3rd rail"

Atlas 2 rail RS1s did have fixed pilots.   My friend had 2-3 of them at one time.

As for weaver motors, I have a large fleet of Weaver RS3s and FA/FB units and have never had a motor failure.    The motors in the single motor versions were real can motors from Pittman.      And these units still show up at train shows in decent quantities.     I have no experience with the 2 motor ones.

I think there are so many RS3s from various importers, that a Sunset version would not get enough reservations to be a go.

It might make more sense to do some models that have not been done recently or not done often.    Perhaps an ALCO RSD7 or RSD15.   Perhaps some of many Baldwin models or Fairbanks Morse would sell better.
