Seriously I would be happy to send you a locomotive for prototyping, measurements, etc.
When I first purchased the pilots for the SD90 they did not fit the SD70ACe/M-2, will have to check the SD45 pilot, but think it will be different enough that the SD40-2 will need it's own pilot.
The 90 and the 70 pilots are shaped different. I think that's where MTH may have made an error at first or knew this? I bet they learned it fast. They made a modern GE pilot and a modern EMD pilot. The models are different. I took plastic versions, mounted them, and ignored this.
I'm not sure if that's why they did not release some diesels in 2 rail versions that did have 3/2 trucks and pilot mounts?? They would need to invest in fixed pilot molds for each model that is different? This method of custom pilots for each model is the way to go for pickier (concerning) customers.
BTW maybe the MTH 2 rail plow is the same for all the models too?
