Rock Island 2-6-0 "Mogul" Type Locomotives

Class G-19/5 (Locobase 7191)

Data from RI 11 - 1904 Locomotive Class & Diagrams supplied in May 2005 by Allen Stanley from his extensive collection.

Apparently the Rock Island didn't indulge itself in operating Moguls as this seems to be the only class of any size that used that wheel arrangement.
