Gregg you may have been in the REAL shortline business but you forget they HAVE to connect in most cases with another railroad! In my case 2 other railroads which run doubleheaders out of staging and back. I don't mind paying $150 plus if you get performance. I am not familar with Kato's Japanese prototypes but it's Mike SUCKS!!!!!!!! So does the Roundhouse. The rest that you mentioned I don't know about but hope you are right. But by good runners it should be able to crawl thru the yard over switches at the same speeds as the Atlas and Kato Desiels, better even if you consider they cost twice as much.By the way the Great Smoky Mnt. Railroad in W.N.C. (Where I live) has 4 desiel and 2 steam locos. Uses steam and desiel to haul tourists and desiel to haul freight. That comes out to about 6 I think. Mike
