The gap on premier MTH diesels | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I made a suggestion on the MTH face book page about the gap on their 3 rail premier diesels. All i said that it would be nice if they could reduce the gap between the body and the trucks. Lionel and some others have reduced the gap to a minimum. All i got was that i should go to the 3 rail scale units with a an attached pilot. Not everybody wants the attached pilot including me. Maybe they should look at the new AC6000 units from Lionel to get an idea on what i was talking about. They did seem confused.

They also need to move the front motor back like lionel did the blue motor cover in the cab is getting old. All in all though there trains are so much cheaper then Lionel. In my future I see my self buying more mth trains cause of the price spending 3k on two trains is getting old fast.

Here is the link to a Photo of a Union Pacific SD70M diesel that has a gap.

It is the real locomotive and it has a gap.
