Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University Volume 25. p. 214. See also "Inspection Car for the Rochester & Pittsburg Coal & Iron Company," Railway and Locomotive Engineering, Volume 17, No 6 (June 1903), p. 259. (Thanks to Chris Hohl for his 19 July 2017 email and pub cite for the R&LE article correcting the wheel arrangement and correcting the adhesion weight.) Works number was 21775 in March 1903.
Like most inspection engines, this locomotive had a passenger car body mounted on a conventioal boiler and firebox. Obviously, it had to be well-insulated. The specs noted that the passenger compartment would have six windows while the cab had five. The radial lead truck that used three equalizing springs.
