Hi Jace;

You are correct as I recall. Ingalls built one locomotive (which I always 
thought looked like a Krausse - Maffei cab on a Stillwell coach body), which 
they sold to GM&O.

A history is found on-line here:

There was a resin kit maker who talked about making an Ingalls in HO, and there 
may have been a brass one in HO or O.

There were at least two FM Eire built models done in S. Bill Gerrachi did a 
Milw version, and someone did one shown in the old Herald, painted for New 
Haven (who never ran any).

Perhaps the record for an ugly duckling.   As Pieter notes, I seem to remember 
a fewscratchbuilt models in the journals; a custom builder did one for himself 
a few years ago in O scale from styrene.  I think there was only one prototype, 
so the commercialpossibilities would not be promising.Atlas also made the Erie 
builts in O scale (what WERE they thinking?)
