Bowser makes an excellant kit. Yes it still comes with an open frame motor but that is not all bad. It can be converted to run on DCC and I think you would find it is a very reliable engine. However it would not meet your needs. The Bowser 4-4-2 is a Pennsy E6 which was built after WW1 and has a belpaire firebox that is completely wrong for the Harriman SP 4-4-2. My suggestion is to get a Harriman kit from MDC Roundhouse products. Internethobbies.com has it in stock and it's on sale. Note it too will have an open frame motor. Alliance Locomotive Products has a kit to conver from the open frame to a can motor http://www.alliancelink.com/alp.
