Speaking of conversion kits, I just thought of a crazy idea; What about
offering a conversion kit for the A unit to make it an Alco FA-2 or PA-1?
Engines existed for both in the warbonnet scheme, and it doesn't take many
bricks to change it. I've already converted mine to an FA-2:

And, if they make a PA-1 conversion kit, it would be a great opportunity to
introduce a 6-AXLE MOTOR!!! Whaddy'all think? An FA-2 conversion would be
more likely, but just thought I'd put both ideas out there.

Dude!
...that would be great for a Babyface Centipede, but I think you meant a 3
axle (or 6 wheel) motor. :-)

Oh, uh right...oops. {:^) Centipede though, that would be awesome to see.
MTH made an O-gauge model a while ago. It's huge!
