New Jersey Railroad & Transportation Co 2-6-0 "Mogul" Type Locomotives

Class Mogul (Locobase 2558)

The first of the Mogul wheel arrangement, this Rogers design featured William Hudson's variation of the basic Bissell truck. Hudson substituted swing links for the Bissell's inclined planes and used a compensating lever to connect the truck spring action to those of the equalized driver sets. As a light freight engine, the 2-6-0 proved quite popular and successful.
