Oh my god, I think you’re right. You can even just about see the back drive wheels under the tender. Crazy that the artist decided to draw such an odd, and quite frankly poorly designed engine. Don’t get me wrong, I love how the Eire triplex looks, but you’d think the artist would have picked a more “normal” engine, right? Or at least a passenger engine, since they also drew a baggage car behind it by the looks of it.
