Looks to me like one o' them there fancy C&O 2-6-6-6 Ally-Gaineys came west on vacation
one year an' spent her time at a dude ranch bein' courted by a Rio Grande L-131 2-8-8-2 ...
Their love-child off-sprang was this here short-legged Yeller-stone 2-8-8-4 what got one more
axle then his pa an' two more axles then his ma ... so to speak.
