Thank you for sharing that thread, lots of great info there!
Does anyone on the forum have any particularly strong feelings about the BrassTrains.com, one way or the other? They have a K2a listed that I'll add to my list of things to keep an eye on.
Also do all 3rd Rail/Sunset models come with TMCC out of the box? Trainz has a K2a listed and says it has TMCC, but Western Depot and Brass Trains don't mention it. If they don't include it, are they conventional only? "Shelf Queens"?

Not all 3rd Rail/Sunset locomotives were made with TMCC or DCC for 2 railers. The K2a did come with TMCC.

Here is link to the OGR article that reviewed this locomotive: OGR 3rd Rail K2a Review

3rd rail locomotives started getting command in the late 2000's as I recall. All the projects I have been involved with since 2009 have had command outside of the GG1 where the 2 rail version did not have command. It's been so long I need to look at the box on my 2 rail one!
