Hey Jeff-

The only one I have details on is the forney.  I saw it in person the last
time I was at Accucraft HQ (when I picked up my C-16)  What I saw was
basically another ruby rehash with brass running boards a rear truck and a
nice looking brass cab/bunker with spring loaded doors that snap shut.

I have just completed a review of Superior for publication in 'Railway
Modeller' in the UK.  I ended up purchasing this loco which is an
absolute pleasure to run.  If interested I can send you a draft of this
article  "off list" plus a couple of web type pics of the loco in action.

This is actually an 0-6-2T, a fairly large English industrial tank engine - 
very powerful, nice slow speed operation.  All in all, a very nice loco.
