Seeking Oil fired steamers...

I was playing with my rolling stock and I realized I have a hole in my collection. Can anyone recommend any small oil-fired steam locomotives, like a 2-8-0 or 2-6-2 size?
American designs are prefered but not required.
Thanks for any help you can offer.

Also, I do belive that the USA SP GS-4 on the DLS is an "oil-fired steamer" though it was actually created for Trainz 1.3...so is a diesel under the hood! (i.e. runs like one, sounds are controlled like it's a diesel, etc.)

I read a config file the other day that said the American 'Mountain' loco was originally coal-fired but was converted to oil burning. However, I don't think it's a small loco, being a 4-8-2 (or something like that).

Shane's Frisco 1522 and the reskins thereof are oil burners, but like Dinorius_Redundicus said, those are 4-8-2's, and not "small".

Yeah, but they're nice, aren't they?
Anyway, they're smaller than the GS-4. I need a War Baby. That was a cool loco.
I found the Northern Pacific F1 in the Subpar Productions website. That looks pretty good, so I'll grab that and find out if it's oil fired later.

Nope, the F-1's a coal burner.
My 0-4-0T is supposed to be an oil burner, but it is set up with coal in the load_coal. The vanderbuilt tenders I have on the DLS are oil burning tenders, but they are set up with the coal product. The vandy tenders can go behind most mid-sized engines. It might be a tight fit for my engines (except the 4-4-2), but it should work with the built in C-41 and the USRA 4-6-2s.

Cheers,

Thanks for the Info.
I was thinking about putting a Vanderbilt tender behind the Consolidation. Even if it demands coal, as long as it has the right look I'll be happy.

Here's a couple of oil burners.
36 in Gauge Black Climax Oil Fired,<kuid:44700:3>
56 in Gauge Black Climax Oil Fired,<kuid:44700:561>
