The Lionel Odyssey motor was an attempt to add cruise to an AC motor However, I believe that the excessive price was probably a key factor in killing it, it was simply cheaper to use the tach sensor with a DC motor than to try to make the AC motor perform as well. Another point that I suspect played into the mix was the DC motors are significantly smaller and fit in places the larger Pulmore Odyssey motor would not have fit.
