I wuz gonna disagree, Doug -
But after looking real close I think you are right. The frame is clearly visible outside the 2nd & 3rd drivers, but hidden behind the crosshead & guides so that it almost looks like it's inside the 1st driver (barely visible in the shadows) – but that would be too weird even for a Roosso loco . . .
