Hi,
The August 2000 Wild West magazine covers train robbers (i.e. James Gang).
representing the 1880's, the engine in the cover painting is 1920 era 476. However the artist did not know what a steam loco was and may have made some changes.
The electric headlight is correct for 476.
The bioler may be a bit small.
The air pump on the front extends below the pilot looking more like two 55 gallon drums of oil.
The cylinders are way to high.
FYI
Doug.
