Marty, I've had good results in this area using the Bachmann On30 trolley motor block (available for about $25 - $30). Although it is On30 (HO gauge) the regauging is just a matter of swapping the axle drive gear onto a set of SHS diesel axles and replacing the wheel sets.
Here is the URL to my pix file showing the regauging. http://s-scale.org/albums/main.php/v/friends/dmunseyjr/?g2_page=9 Keep in touch!

Drop it on the rails and away it goes. 4 wheels or 6 wheels. It must be DCC convertible so an old Miller power truck is out. I want a pair of them to power an experimental locomotive (no prototype). Scale flanges preferred. I could regauge an HO mechanism but I would prefer to start with an S mechanism. Thanks!
