G'Day, are the mechanicals and chassie the same on the light and heavy class mountains loco's? I am trying to get a light for scratch building into  local [ SAR- South Australian Railways ] loco's and seem to only be able to find heavy mountains on the net. Thanks!

Since the light can negotiate 18" radius and the heavy cannot, I'd say the chassis is different.
