Yes, it's very amazing that there is not a H0N3 model around in the range of $100-$200. ConCor is producing the RGS galloping goose which should be out shortly. May be if this is a comercial success, they will start with something like a K27?
Here in Europe narrow gauge modelling has had an enormous boost. BEMO is producing excellent H0m (meter gauge) models (not only electrics and diesel, they startet also with quite reasonably priced steam models, e.g. an RhB consolidation), and they are selling extremely well. I hope the american model industry will follow and start producing good priced HOn3 RTR models - IMHO, American narrow gauge modelling in HOn3 would get the same boost as European in HOm.
Just dreaming: Maybe we could convince BEMO in entering the Amercian market with a K27 or K36
