John,
No.....I hadn't seen that thread until a few minutes ago. Nice job on that one!
Originally, I thought I'd have to find some old Alco frames and cannibalize them for the plates or......make some out of sheet metal or brass (which would be fairly easy, I think). But Jeff Kane, my parts guy had some plates. I originally was going to do it on one set, but bought the three he had and ended up doing three sets. I have a fourth set, but will leave that one (Erie) as is. It's amazing, the difference in performance of these already nice engines.
