I believe there was an article in the Gazette about 21 and 22 and the PFM vs Bachmann models. Mallory Hope Farrell perhaps…I don’t know the issue of hand but you might search the Model Railroader index and see what pops up.

Also, Mal did a nice feature in one of the Narrow Gauge Annual's on his modifications to the Bachmann model.
I have always been partial to 21 for no good reason whatsoever. When PFM imported these eons ago, it seemed to me at the time that the model more closely resembled 21 than 22. I always found it odd these locos were scrapped rather early, yet according to the numbering should have had a greater tractive effort than the Cooke's, but the latter were more powerful.
Does anyone know which issue this article was in? I didn’t see anything obvious looking at the on-line contents.
