I tend to think it would be easier and faster to either: (1)
scratchbuild what you really want, or (2) encourage existing S
manufacturers to offer kits of what you really want, or (3) hire a
professional custom model builder to make exactly what you want.
Trying to convince MTH, Weaver, etc. to move into S scale with high
quality products of exactly what you want will probably never
happen. S scale has been around for decades and so have these O
scale manufacturers. All of them have had ample opportunity over the
years to move into S scale and none of them have chosen to do so.
MTH has, instead, moved into HO and G and electronics -- ignoring S.
Not a bad business decision, I might add. Even Lionel, with an
existing S gauge product line, has chosen not to build S scale
products.
Not wanting to be labeled a "pessimist", I'd encourage you to call up
MTH and discuss the matter and let us all know the results. This
should be interesting, to say the least.
Good luck...Ed L.
