Century Detail parts used to sell a casting of an HO scale GRS switch machine for remote throwing of CTC controlled switches on the Q.  Showcase Miniatures sells these now, but while searching, I came upon 3-D printed versions sold by Northwestern Scale Models (through 3-D Central.)  Though the pictures are CAD renderings of the part, they look very tempting to try.  The issue is they offer several different machines, including a 5A, 5E, 5F, 5G, 5H, and a 6.  While it doesn't appear like there is that much difference, I was wondering if any of our experts might know what type of machine the Q was using back in the day.

Thanks for any help,

Rich
