Very nice to see a Camelback build thread!
I don't want to hi-jack the thread, but I made a 2-8-0 Camelback myself during the Christmas holiday.
The drawing I used:

I started with a Spectrum 2-8-0.

I managed to use many of the Spectrum parts in the build, it isn't totally accurate in any way, but I think it captures the essence of the Camelback.
I really like the loco type
I look forward to see more of the 2-10-0 Camel!
