We had one modeler here in Colorado who kitbashed a Mantua 2-6-6-2 to an On30 
model of a Uintah articulated.   The same could be done for Sumpter Valley and 
other narrow gauge logging roads.   I have a Mantua 2-6-6-2 which I bought some 
years ago and would be interested in seeing a Q T-1 kitbash idea.
