Tom,
My guess is that they won't fit, although I have only worked on one of
RM's SW switcher bodies several years ago. The RS bodies are similar in
design so I suspect the same mis-match. The problem is, that parts of
the Am chassis are duplicated by the Railmaster body, but you can't
eliminate one. You need the basic chassis for the Am drive and you
need to us the RM rim of their chassis for cosmetic reasons. Very much
like combining a Chevy and a VW bug because they're both cars.
As I wrote in my article in the NASG Dispatch, the Railmaster drive
system is at least as good as AM's and it's designed to fit. Why ruin a
great thing.
