A oddly and very unique engine! What prototype? I have had said these things to myself and sold trains and other things I wish I still had!

2-10-4 is definitely a "Y'all" class. 
The Columbia, Ken, I thought you sold that?

Hey Ken:
We're both right the Internet and I.
By saying "Y'all" class I was using a play on a Texan colloquialism from Texas. So, let me spell it out;
2-10-4 = Texas class = Y'all perhaps the most common expression in that part of America.
I asked about the Colimbia because it was in your post and I interpreted that to mean you may have kept it or perhaps acquired another one.
Done,
Gareth

Love looking at Ken's brass ones....Hey now! That's not a euphemism--I'm talking trains! Believe it or not, SP sometimes called those types of tenders "sausage tenders." Again, no euphemism!
