I'd suggest you look at Bachmann's steamers - these are fairly cheap and available in a wide variety of colour schemes - not sure how accurate they are (suspect not very!) but they are far cheaper than BLI. I would suspect that steamers would be less forgiving of track problems than diesels as they have longer fixed wheelbases. Bachmann have three 4-8-4s that might be good as testers - none are B&O though. The largest B&O liveried loco they offer is a 2-6-2 tender loco - as said before, I have no idea whether this loco is accurate but it is fairly cheap and should be good for testing.
