Anyone interested in the RS-3 --

Be careful of this small pilot.  Earlier versions of the Railmaster RS-series 
kits had this little pilot integrally cast into the loco
ends.  Once installed, they interfere with the Kadee coupler pins, preventing 
coupling unless you remove the pins from all your
rolling stock.  So, if you want to preserve the ability to uncouple over 
magnets, you need to remove the little pilot, or restrain
yourself from modeling the pilot if it's not there originally.
