While she looks like a 2-4-0, when the pilot was added, the side-rods were removed. Only the last axle is powered making the John Bull actually a 4-2-0. Thanks for sharing.

Nick, thanks for pointing out the change in wheel arrangement. The photo data has been corrected accordingly.

Thank you for this part of history. US trackage was lousy and shoddy next to England's-- Trackage was responsible for many of the RR tragedies prior to and just after the Civil War.
