I know the cow is way too big and out of scale for S or O gauge, but that can be fun and delightful in the same way as the operating Gateman.
My parents and I were 100% postwar Lionel, but my mother really liked the AF cow on track when we saw it at Macys; she would have bought it for me in a heartbeat if it worked on 027 track.

I think so, but don't recall who. I can't think of a reason off hand why not except I think AF used some frequency based triggers at times (?). Even then a new trigger to activate the coil or motor shouldn't be too hard or expensive at first thought.
I think it is "Jury rigged" used in a different context....?
