HO scale 2-10-2 information needed

[NW Modeling List]

Marty,

I didn't know Proto made a 2-10-2 - that might be interesting as well. 
I've received an answer on the Spectrum version, but have not heard 
anything on the IHC.  As for the crank pin throw, it's the distance from 
the center of the crank pin to the center of the axle.  Ideal for my 
purposes would be 15" (scale inches, of course), but it's hardly the 
most critical dimension.

I'm fine with a direct response off list, as this has little to do with 
the N&W, other than the faint possibility of using one of these as a 
staring point for an M.

Thanks for your time,
Kenneth Rickman
