** By any chance is Old Maud the B&O's first articulated locomotive #2400. If so, my conversation with John EM-1 and some info he gave me is wrong. This is good for him because he said that the front and rear sets of cylinders had different types of piston slides. This is not so in the as built drawings, and photos of this locomotive. Cylinders are different larger low pressure and smaller high pressure.

It shows it having smaller rear cylinders and larger front cylinders. It also shows cylinder valves in back and a square valve chest on the front, just as in the drawing at the start of this thread. Carpe Manana!
