Changing over to 2 rail O might be a bridge too far.

I'm guessing most of the O scale traction models you see there are brass, limited runs and therefore pricey. The build one and paint it a dozen schemes happens in all gauges and even more so now with the F liine in San Francisco.

I am surprised no one has done a LRV in 3 rail with all the Superstreets around.
