Data from Baldwin Locomotive Works Specification for Engines as digitized by the DeGolyer Library of Southern Methodist University , Volume 41, p. 37. Works number was 38470 in October 1912.
Although based on a widely used plantation Mogul often operated on the metre gauge or larger, the 15 had to be adapted to the narrower spread of the 3-foot layout used by this Waukegon, Texas logger for its tram road. This meant a narrower, hence smaller grate, but deeper firebox that could burn either coal or wood; its heating surface area was slightly larger as a result.
The specs say emphatically that the "old" rail weight is 35 lb/yard (17.5 kg/metre) and that the "weight of engine must not overrun specification. Investigate weight and if specified weight is too great for 35 lb. rails, it must be reduced." Note that because it was a logging road and not a common carrier, the KMC could specify the dangerously antiquated link-and-pin couplers that had been banned from common carriers for decades.
