Dave, I always figured the '34 Hiawatha as a brass only item in N-scale. It wasn't that long a trainset. Typically no more than 10 cars (from Chicago to the Twin Cities), usually less, but it ran a 100MPH timetable. The Atlantics had 104" drivers, so the trainset couldn't be too long. Mr. Wallet would open wide and say "Ouch!" if these were ever made. The MW's EF-3/5/7 Boxcabs would also open Mr. Wallet big time. N-Cat anyone? 8)
