HOn3 becoming the new On30?

It appears that HOn3 is on the rise with more affordable and available rolling stock and track. Still, locos are hard to find.

If there were available and affordable locos, would HOn3 explode like On30 did due to its compact size?

I think it would...

Once I get a few layouts off my plate, I'm going to work on an HOn3 layout design.
