Yes it is. Thanks for the advice. Also thanks to all the other posters as well.
I will try to find a LMB.

Terry;
Is it by chance the PFM 4-6-2 lettered for the CB&Q that Hills Hobby has
had for sale for many moons? If so, that model is a USRA light 4-6-2
and really does not begin to resemble any of the Q's 4-6-2's other than
having the same wheel arrangement. If all you want is an approximation,
you'd be money ahead to buy an Athearn Genesis USRA light 4-6-2 and
letter it for the Q. As other posters have commented, the only Q 4-6-2
that has been done is the S-2A imported many years ago by LMB. I have a
couple of them, and while sparsely detailed by today's standards, they
are sturdy, well-running models that are easily upgraded. Wish we had
better news for you.
Kind regards, Rob Adams
