The green goat light switcher is the only freight one I can think of. Also, Chicago's Metra recently bought some sort of deformed knockoff of the F59PHi
called the MP36. both are made by MotivePower industries.

Like most other things, if I have to ask the price, I probably can't afford it.

A recon SW1500 is about $130,000

Just a couple of things,
Does anyone make 4 axle locomotives anymore? I was under the impression that they didn't. (Except for GE's Genisis units)
MR had a joke review in the April 2004 issue, and it was of the WSOR MR boxcar. I think the price was something like $20 000.

Even though its really not my buissness, but, why? If you wanted something to do, i would go to scranton PA and see if you could pick up a "project" from SteamTown N.P. they've got a couple steamers sittin in the yard.
