Gary, I believe biL is correct. There are no more manufacturers of cast metal kits for steamers nowadays. The last to offer them was Tyco, and they essentially offered what was then in stock from Mantua/Tyco. Bowser will still offer parts, but once they've run out, that'll be the end of that game.
David, I do have a substantial collection of information on the 2-8-2, including photos and a "blueprint" of the USRA Mike, which also does not show that widgit....
I will take my time building this thing, as I'll have other "distractions" (...layout..) to keep me busy.
I'll update the thread as progress warrants.
Thanks for looking....
