These Moguls were bought by the ACL of South Carolina from Rogers at the same time as the 4-4-0s shown in Locobase 7350. Most of the dimensions are similar and vary primarily to accommodate a 2-6-0 arrangement rather than the Eight-wheeler. The steam dome sits proudly over the firebox crown sheet while the equally ornate sand dome hovers over the leading driven axle.
Four out of the six Moguls supplied by Baldwin in February 1896 went to the Wilmington & Weldon, a principal constituent of the ACL when it formed four years later. The other 2 were delivered to the Norfolk & Carolina, which connected a W & W branch from Tarboro, NC to Pinner's Point, Va, which served Hampton Roads.
