I saw that the other day and got really excited for a minute.

But then I realized that I don't know what we'd power it with, and stopped getting excited.

I wasn't excited at all - I can't use switchers. :P

I thought there was a hood width issue Robb. I'd be very happy to learn I was wrong.

Nice!

I had always thought it was more of that. I guess it's the proportions that always threw me off.

I would gladly butcher any currently-available N scale mech to wrangle me some 1001s. They're a HUGE hole in the CR southeastern PA roster...

Well that counts out the LLSW1200... The frame would be too thin if filed at all.
I'll pick up a Kato NW2 (I need the parts anyway). The motor will be too thick, but I think I can replace that with one from Mashima. I already have an SW1500 shell I kitbashed from an MP15.
