Mallet ?? !!

A Mallet is an articulated locomotive that is a compound with low-pressure cylinders on the front (articulated) set of drivrs. Following on the concept first espoused by Anatole Mallet (1837–1919).

I do believe that the Uintah / Sumter Valley locomotives are simple (high pressure to both sets of cylinders) articulated locomotives.
