Thanks guys. 

Although the ten wheeler was built as 1:22, everything is just a matter of scale.  I just don't think the prototype was very good looking to begin with.  Bruce's 1:20 scale cab shows how much better looking the locomotive is when it is modified.  Can't wait to see your finished project Bruce.

I bought the Banta Cab to see how I liked it.  if I have to scratch build, I may use some of the parts.  Dimensionally, it is only slightly taller, but does fit the locomotive perfectly.  I do, however, want a more modern look of a steel cab.  Checking average dimensions of published locomotive drawings in the Gazette, it should definitely be taller and probably a little wider.  I believe the ten wheeler would be a much lines if it had a more scaled out cab in 1:20.  Thanks for your suggestion, David

Mr. Bach Man,

  I have a 4-6-0 anniversary edition locomotive.  I hate the look of the three window cab and the smaller proportions (out of scale for 1:20.3).  I would like to change the cab.  Is it possible to order a cab from a K-27 or the 2-8-0 and modify it to fit my 4-6-0?  That may be easier than scratch building a new one or modifying the old one.  I don't follow a prototype, so I am free to do what I want that would look appropriate.  thanks
