I saw Beth's upcoming MTH SW1500 in TRRA, but I'm a 2-railer. Too bad they won't be MTH Proto-Scale 3-2. Speaking of switchers, if MTH doesn't come through on the other SW1500s, I'd LOVE to see Atlas release the MP15DC in A&S (number #1522), as well as re-release MRS - one of the best paint jobs IMO.

Heck, add in a re-run of Mopac too. I missed out on past Atlas O MP15DCs but did get an unpowered unit in Mopac. Back then I was naive and thought Atlas O would surely re-run such a successful model.
I think availability of 2R switchers would really help 2R take off. It would allow for smaller radii and switching layouts where modelers can be more prototypical where space may be limited.

The MRS is Sweet. They never turn up in the secondary market. Yes it would be nice too for Atlas to reissue it and MP.I think it was also issued unpowered. Now Wish I got one of those too !!! 🤔
