Once my current edit suggestion is rejected I will update it accordingly. -- Last edit: 2025-04-06 17:31:17

It was originally built as an 0-4-0T, and was later converted to an 0-4-2, as shown in your first link. Then it was given an anachronistic rebuild into its current 4-4-0 form, presumably to make it more of a tourist attraction. Oh damn your right, my bad, in her current state she would still classify as a B-4-T (4-4-0), although as built she was likely an porter BS series if she was built as an 0-4-0T -- Last edit: 2025-04-06 17:38:38

It does look like a Porter though as it shares its appearance with the Porter 4-4-0 in there catalog. Click on the link I posted, this is a locomotive on display in Sedalia.
