If anyone did do an RS36 High Nose it was probably in brass. Only eight real ones were made. Two for the Nickel Plate and six for the Norfolk and Western. The NKP units eventually went to the N&W when they merged with the N&W. You could probably rework an Atlas Trainman. They are very nice and run well. You can generally get one for $55.00 to $60.00. Good luck.
