Perhaps "narrow" was a poor choice of words on my part. Typically, the cylinder saddle is about the same depth (length? width?) as the valve housing, as measured along the boiler axis.
Feel free to ask. The dimensions will be as close as I can get them based on what I have. Which by no means indicates that they will be incredibly accurate.
Don't forget, once you get the cab, domes, tender, headlight and some other details *right* you can use them for the other engines!

OK. I was wondering about the frame crossmember under the cab. It looks a bit thick for solid plate, or did they use rectangular tubing for some reason?
