The restored appearance of #4 has always struck me as a little off visually which is odd. It's a handsome locomotive. Looking at Steward Rhine's image posted today it struck me the boiler jacketing appears to have no boiler bands holding it on.

Is that true or is it my 50 something eyes playing tricks on me. Also the non-boiler tube pilot looks different as well.

Not complaining at all. #4 is a nice locomotive and probably ideal for the operation at Como.
