Yes there are definitely a few similarities there. Thanks for the photo.
Unfortunately this project might be put on hold. I got the package from Sumpter yesterday only to discover that the parts were for MDC's 'harriman' 2-8-0, a much larger engine and they were all too large. So now I'm back on the hunt for a main rod and crosshead. If anyone has spares kicking around their parts box please let me know.

The length of the main rod is 1.516" and the cross head is .7".
