Hi everyone, I found these two photos of S Scale H6's that I'd thought may be of interest. They are built by Simon Parent for Trevor Marshall. Simon creates his own kits - castings and etchings - then builds them for others modelers. They were found on the "Model Railway Show" Facebook page. <!-- m --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.facebook.com/modelrailwayshow">http://www.facebook.com/modelrailwayshow</a><!-- m --> I'll see if I can track down an address and if he's doing HO parts or kits. 
Also, the is a rumor that Athearn will be bringing out the old Roundhouse / MDC Harriman 4-6-0, 2-6-2, 4-4-2, & 2-8-0 kits again as ready to run with an updated drive, DCC/Sound ready, & details. I've seen these models used as a stand-in after a bit of re-detailing for almost believable CNR 4-6-0's & 2-8-0's. Not exact boilers or tenders, but they can look very Canadian with some work. Have fun - Dave
