My cab is similar but will need additional windows in the sides. It also appears to not have the extra notches out of the cab roof over the tender. It appears that the drivers are spaced further apart leading me to believe that this is a longer engine. I'm planning on making new cylinders but without a specific prototype to base them on I wasn't sure where to go on that part. These type of cylinders look like they would work well on mine but I'm reluctant because I'm not sure that this one is close enough. I'll have to make a decision as soon as I nail down a prototype.

Great shot!

From the 1942 revised Espee erection diagram I have for one of its associated lined, the T-58 was 39' 3.875" from tip of pilot to end of cab floor/pulling face.  25' 11" wheelbase from hub of rear driver to hub of front pilot wheel.  63" drivers spaced evenly (7'2" btwn hubs).  pilot wheels 35" spaced 6'6" apart.  More details in the erection diagram.
