OK, I got a shot Aristocraft 4-6-0 camel back. Boiler is shot and so is the pilot. I wanna use the frame and what not for something else. Any ideas here? I wanna use the frame and make a 4-6-0. What boiler would work? I was looking at a Varney casey jones boiler.

With lots of bashing, you might be able to rework a Mehano 2-6-0 "mother hubbard' to make a new camelback 4-6-0. It'll likely need a tweeking, just like real 2-6-0 to 4-6-0 conversions needed. A Mantua 4-6-2 camel back may also make a suitable donor. I would assume you want a camelback?
