It's funny that you can get just about all of them in HO, if not actual RTR engines, at least shells which can easily be built and detailed. I guess in O, with less competition in the marketplace, they build what they figure will sell the most with the least expense to tooling modifications. I was originally interested in a DR-6-1500, as I figured a shark chassis would be a good starting point, and are readily available. However, since they mostly ran back and forth to PA, and the area that I'm "modeling" (once I actually have room for a layout) is South Amboy, it would make more sense for a DRX-6-2000, since they ran regularly on the NY&LB.
