Why guess? He's already stated that he's doing the Fyansford cement railway
As to G42, the only thing that really matches between it and the Fyansford Garratt's is really the boiler. The Fyansford locos, being 3ft6in gauge are a bit bigger, and are a slightly different design. It's possible that you could kitbash the mesh into them, however it's really a heap easier to start them from scratch...
Reason the boiler matches? It was a spare Fyansford Garratt boiler that PBR purchased, and modified slightly to allow it to go onto G42. The boiler is nearly identical to the original, however the main visible difference is the four washout plugs on the top corners of the firebox.
