So many questions and so little time! Here's another, who out of Lionel or MTH and where can I find a set, makes the best MARS light factory equipped Santa Fe F3/F7???? I like the more realistic looking F3 or maybe it's an F7, not sure, that has a more realistic looking plow on the front and I think cab #16 or 17.
Thanks again for everyone's help,
Rich

How about Atlas O?
Not sure if its the best but heres my TMCC Lionel f7 ABA set 6-24589 from 2006. Poor quality video but you can see the mars light operation and hear the sounds fairly well.
I think that the current Lionel Legacy F3/F7 models also have a pretty good Mars light. Here's a short clip of a couple of mine that I made shortly after I received the two Burlington F3A units. I now have an A-B-A set, and a Milwaukee F7 A-A set, so I guess that means that I must like them. The sound is great too. 
Out of curiosity, all the model train mars type lights I've seen have been the pulsing light style. Has anyone made a rotating mars one or two (red/white) light on an O gauge engine?
