Thank you.

I had thought of complete conversion, however, I do not wish to lose some of the great functionality that the vision line big boy comes with. I am under the impression that these conversions result in loss of some of these functions.  Am I mistaken in this?

I have no issue with the middle rail, I was just wanting to change out the look of the hi rail wheel flanges.

 

Then you could have Joe just convert the wheels to 2-Rail SCALE, but still leave the model/models 3-Rail electrically, and thus retain all the "features".
