Lutz,
I looked at it last night, and it would not be that hard to make the Mantua model be a stand-in for this locomotive by swapping out a few things and adding a few details. But, since I am modeling a fictional road, I am not sure if I want to go that route. I like the tender the Mantua came with, so I will just keep it. I may swap out the cab, because the current one does not match well with the rest of my roster. I will probably just add a few details and lettering, and an oil bunker for the tender. Mostly I was just excited to see that shortlines in Arizona ran 4-4-2s.
