I just wish someone would make a quality EMD switcher in N scale these days. SW1, SW9, SW1200, etc. Something. Anything of early times, not an MP15.

Honestly, I really like my BLI units. They're not perfect but they've made trade offs that I can live with.

They made the SW7/NW2, right? Those are good, but more variety would be good. A solid SW1200/1500 would be very much appreciated. I'd have a fleet of orange ones.
