Remember that virtually all of the "conversions", as you referred to them, generally required a complete new cast steel frame, and a completely remanufactured boiler .

Some of these "conversions" remind me of a story about an ax that had once been owned by Abraham Lincoln.  The handle had only been replaced three times and the head twice.
