I made a really cool and interesting discovery a few days ago. So I was just doing some think about TS while working on homework. This is when I think of Metra. I have no idea why, since I don't live in the Chicago Metro Area. I thought about their little line with the double-decker EMUs. This was when I had an epiphany. "What if someone takes the gallery cab car fro the Racetrack, add pantographs and other prototypical details to make it look like an EMU car, then run it as AI!" It would have to be AI-only as cabcars can't move on their own. I did a test with the Shoreliner cab car, and the tests were successful. The car ran as if it were a locomotive in AI mode.
Now, what about some Highliner Railcars for TS?

P.S. I also thought of maybe substituting those EMUs on the South Shore Line with Comet Vs using the same concept.
