Who are the moderators? I would like to ask for their advice before posting.
I have to ask who the moderators of the Model Railroad Hobbyist forums are, as I would like to before posting ask for their advice. I think this is helpful as being a member of the Model Railroader forums, I at times ask the mods at times before posting to make sure what they think?

Need help identifying who made my 4-4-2
Ebay can be a place full of marvelous treasures sometimes, such as this beautifully super detailed 4-4-2 that I managed to find purely by chance while trolling through listings for a good deal. She came with a pair of kit-built super detailed coaches (which helped offset the fact I paid about $100 for the whole lot) and after some mcgyvering to repair a broken wire connection between the tender and engine with what amounts to a duct tape band-aid on the insulated connector, I managed to get her going.
Converting Bachmann 2-8-0 to SP prototype
I've noticed that Owl Mountain Models has offered a conversion kit to modify Bachmann's Baldwin 2-8-0 to more closely resemble a Southern Pacific C-8/C-9. Do any of you SP prototype experts know how close a model could be achieved by replacing cylinders, valve gear, domes etc. as per this kit? Just wondering how close the driver size and spacing, boiler diameter and general dimensions etc of the Bachmann model would scale out.
