Technically, bachmann does, with the On30 Forneys, they have a 2-4-4 wheel arrangement.

Right HOn30 is O scale 3 foot guage running on HO track since the HO track is very close to the narrow guage prototypes. The ICRR 2-4-4 were all mainline standard guage locomotives. Even tho the ICRR did have some 3 foot guage lines in Mississippi during the era.

On30 is what you are thinking of. HOn30 is HO scale running on N scale track. On30 is what bachmann sells.
