On the Bay, and something I blundered on due to the fouled up Bay listings recently, was, under: Collecibles, Photographs,
etc, etc., a photo of Broke and Onery #316 0-6-0T that looks like a steam dummy, but a high setting one, with a cab
covering the boiler to the smoke box. However, it might be an inspection engine, although I don't see the usual seats
at the front, nor is there room for them. What is this? I would post it on here, if I knew how.

Back in the 1800's, B&O had locos built by Winans and called "Camels" (not camelbacks). There's one in the Baltimore RR Museum. Google camel locomotive and you'll find pictures. There is a video of the 4-6-0 being moved into the Baltimore roundhouse, mistakenly labeled as a camelback. IS this what you've seen/
Nope...this is described as, and looks like, an 0-6-0T. The photo can be pulled up off
the bay now, as it is listed for a while.
That is it, although a different photo than that on the bay. Kind of large for a steam
dummy, but not originally built in that configuration. B&O fans will have to build their
own, but here are two photos for help.
