[CBQ] Re: Flat smokebox fronts for 0-4 Mikados or USRA 2-10-2s?

["Lee" <litehousekeeper@hotmail.com>]

GHQ has produced a conversion kit in n-scale which includes all the detail 
parts necessary (incl both Worthington & Elesco feedwater heaters) to 
accurately model the Q O4 prototype from Kato's mikado.  They followed up with 
a very nice "how-to" article:

Though likely you are referring to HO, the GHQ n-scale kit/article would be a 
valuable reference for an HO scratch-build project.
