Since SHS has imported both two and three bay PS-2's for any AF buyers, however, that might not be worth their attempting in S scale;probably also not the AAR twins. Lionel has made some very nice PS-4 flatcars (including some with TOFC trailers) and PS-5 gondolas. Since there has never been a mass-market PS-1 in S scale, and the Lionel O scale ones are very well-done, that would be an obvious choice for them.
