Hi Mike,
I am aware of the nice BTS products. As I understand the loco kits are out of production right now. I would prefer On3 myself, but getting a big company like Bachmann behind a project like this in affordable RTR plastic is really what is needed IMHO. On30 seems to have broader appeal so I'm ok with that since I can lay On30 track even easier thanks to www.custmtrax.com
PS. How did you like building the station kit? The Orbisonia Station was my first masters kit. Needless to say, I learned a lot. Bill's laser cut kits are, IMO, exceptional. The instruction book is one of the better ones. If you have a problem with a part, Bill will make it right. E-mail questions were answered quickly. To get the grade correct at the front of the station, to match to Atlas Nickel Silver Track required two pieces of Masonite be used as the model base. See picture below.
There is some interior detail. The roof and second floor can be removed, and more detail added if you want.
