Thanks for that response. I had seen "MT" before,
but not "Herschell". This locomotive was a "4-4-4"
but the "drivers" really were not doing the work.
There was a sort of transfer-case which sent power
fowards and back to two different opposing drive-
shafts. It actually worked more like a heisler.
And I noticed the air hose, but couldn't imagine how it worked. Interesting design. The operator
also stated that only 50 of these were built,
is that possible?
